		| | I didn't get to AJ during the challenge but if you don't mind I'd like to say something now.  AJ is adorable!  I too have a little weiner dog, her name is Lolli Pup so you get an extra point for that :) 
 The noise and grain in the shot might work better if this were a black and white.  but you can also use Neat Image to help clean some of that up.  I like the colors but they don't really pop off the page, seem just a bit dull overall.  Also a more solid background without the wrinkles will really make a difference on keeping the attention on the main subject.  I did give you a 7, would have been a 6 but like I said, extra point for having a beautiful little weiner dog ;)

		| | Something just isn't quite right about this picture...perhaps it's the graininess, or the expression on the pooch's face. |

		| | It's good that you've tried to 'hide' the background with a backdrop but the creases and depth of field make it become part of the image more than just a background. The image is also fairly noisy, which could be because of poor light or too much exposure correction. The focus also looks a little off, again this could be because of poor/dim lighting. The composition is good. |

		| | Too grainy and the background has distracting wrinkles |

		| | So much chromatic noise detracts from your precious pup?  Rotating slightly counterclockwise to level the eyes and cropping in vertically would help this shot. |

		| | Cute dog, hazy photo. Would have liked to see a slightly crisper photo and stronger colors to bring him/her away from the background - at least for the face. |

		| | This looks like a very poor quality image.  Maybe taken way to small with too little light.  The wrinkled cloth background is a definite problem as well. |

		| | Image is very grainy (result of high iso?) focus seems a very soft as well. |

		| | Focus seems a bit soft to me, also the wrinkles on the backdrop are very distracting, takes away from the quality of the image in my opinion. |

		| | The light is good, but it is very grainy and a bit soft/out of focus. |
