    VPN,

    Very nice composition and perfect DOF. I would crop just a bit off of the right to get rid of that small plant sticking out. Also may be another round of USM on the dog?

    Sid has hit the nail on the head with his comment, I agree with him entirely

    Nice pose and composition here VPN.
    I agree with Sid on his crop and sharpening suggestions (just watch when applying that the dog's fur doens't become "scrunchy" ).
    I would also consider applying some highlights toning via Luminosity masks as per Robert's method (sticky thread in Wildlife on top) with a very low opacity (10-15%) for a bit more detail to come through.

    Lovely image VPN, love the comp and the dogs angle. I also agree with above comments on extra sharpening and removing plants.

    Hi VPN - Nice stance and I like that you can see the teeth. Good suggestions above for taking this up a notch.

    TFS,
