Although some didn't feel that it met the challenge, I disagree with them. To me, this embodies the essence of "Home, Sweet Home". What else is "Home" about than our pets who are always there when we get home and love us unconditionally.
From a composition standpoint, I would like to see the dog looking into the frame. When he looks out of the picture, it leads the viewer's eye away and we don't stay with the picture for very long. The colors are nice and your exposure is pretty good although I would like to see a little more detail in the white fur on the top of the snout. While the focus is on the dog, I don't think that it's as sharp as it might be --- either from camera movement or subject movement --- and could be improved. DOF is sufficient and keeps the focus on the main subject.
Maybe I'm a sucker for dog pictures but I like this one quite a lot. When I viewed it, I felt right "at home" so I thought it met the challenge and the doggie looks "good enough to pet!". BTW, I had given this one an 8 in the scoring.
Regards ... for the Critique Club,

Crop the left side of the photo, but it does make you wonder what he/she is looking at. |

nice sharp focus on the dog, and the background being blurred brings it out all the more...great dof used. |

The sharp focus on the dog only is great! Great colors too. |
