Seems like every other photo I get to critique is yours, Anna. Here we go again.
The framing of this seems very arbitrary - face dead centre, cut off of the elbow on the fromt leg, it doesn't feel level, but not so tilted that it would be deliberate. The colours and tones of the fur are excellently brought out, but the flash has really flattened out any texture to it, and also left the lighting of the whole thing very uneven - that area of floor top right seems almost black - a sure sign that the flash has washed out any sign of the ambient light. It's also picked up those highlights in the carpet and is making it seem particularly plastic.
The link to the challenge is clear enough for me, though I suspect not for others - that's the usual problem with scores below 4.
Why not get a tripod, and switch the flash off on your camera? I promise you you'll get better results :-)

aww cute doggie... visual communication (i.e. communicating a message with a visual image) is a skill that can be learned. think about the message you want to communicate and then what actions or symbols represent that message most clearly :) .. |

This was the most confusing picture. I really didn't get it until I read your comment. Now I get it. We had a dog that did the same thing as I was growing up. She would meet us at the bus stop. The only critique would be to get the whole dog in the shot. Keep shooting. |

Overall, It is a nice picture, but I do not feel that it fits in with this challenge. |
