You certainly know how to show off a dog. The dark BG helps a lot to put the spotlight on the textures in all that curly hair. They must be rare, I don't believe I have ever seen one.

Great textures gorgeous poochie! The flash looks a little direct and un-diffused for my tastes.

That curly hair looks almost sheep-like! What an interesting looking animal.

The dog almost doesn't look real. The curls make it look like a ceramic dog a bit. Nice pose and lighting.

He's so pretty! I was going to guess a mixed breed (like Labradoodle or something).

His coat is like one of those old fashioned steel wool pads that's all curled up. I love the light. We NEVER see those guys here.

Wonderful lighting and composition, and amazing detail in the black hair. Love it! The dog looks like it is a "pro" at these sorts of events!

Edited typo..

I really like the texture of the fur that you have brought out in this photo. Really brings out those curls.
Lovely dog
