This is good! You just want to reach in and pet him or maybe hug him.

this one is pretty blurry. If it was sharper and the dog was to the left of the photo instead of the middle. also have his head looking in to the frame of the picture.

This poor guy looks like he has been through the ringer. A little more DOF would be nice. Something seems strange at the top, could just be the blur from being out of the focal plane.

LOL I feel his/her pain. On one hand I think the light is a bit harsh. On the other, when I picture the shot without it I think it would lose some of its appeal.

8 - Really like this shot. Good character capture. Criticism; the sharpness in the nose is good, but 'if only' it either carried through a little 'deeper', or else were perhaps (the nose) more prominent/closer. The seemingly 'high key' type of effect works here, especially given the white fur on the mouth/chin and chest, so even though it seems a little 'blown' around the edges, this still 'works', in my opinion. Memorable shot. Up to 8 from 7.
