 My sweet cocker spaniel. As photogenic as she is, she HATES cameras (and moreso the flashes that accompany them). When I get my camera out, she runs and tries to find a hiding place where I won't find her. She was a good sport here tho -- but only because I settled her in on her favorite cuddle blanket.

HEE HEE - what a cutie. I love a pet getting a "Glamour Shots" type of portrait. The white drape of fabric perfect! Nice soft focus without being blurred.

I can't believe you didn't get a ribbon with Lacey! Judging from all the great comments others feel the same way. I will put this in my favorites collection to give you a personal Blue Ribbon Sandy.

I like the shot, but I think it could have done without the blurry border.

Now this guy is real cute. If more care would have been paid to the focusing this image would scire so, so high. Yet, it is still impressive and deserving a bump.

Okay, I confess, I have a particular fondness for Cockers:) But what a face, huh? I like the softness of the image, the background is perfect for putting the emphasis right where it belongs.

Oh, that look, the look that says, "Love me! You just have to!" Very nice, good lighting, very nice composition, the only thing that bothers me is the edging, I'm not a big fan of this type of edging. So I hope a 9 is okay :)

There were many snapshots I looked at in this challenge, however you have mastered a portrait in this photo. I love the softness through the blur that you created, as it says "Pet Me! I'm a soft Dog". Very nice job!!! 10
