Mark,

I have no problem with the dog being best in any show as it's one beautiful
animal. And if there was ever a true "man's best friend" this breed has to
be it! Great dogs to say the least and beautiful to boot. I don't mean to
"boot as in kick!" :-)

 

However if I were to look at this photograph as best in show, which I'm sure
you didn't mean, I'd have to say you lose! Sorry mate it's the cut of the
dog to photograph quality.

 

And given you have stated such a warm feeling for this particular breed I'd
think you'd have gone out of your way to capture a much superior photograph
than this sort of over the shoulder, some what out of focus owner-trainer .

 

However the beautiful eyes and expression of animal almost save your ass in
this shot! :-( Not! Unfortunately the trainer is a great big distraction
taking away from the potentially beautiful animal. If cropping the trainer
is possible it might? Would? Maybe? Enhance the picture somewhat with a
stronger impact of the dog's eyes and face. Worth a try.

 

Or of course you make an appointment and do a re-shoot with the owner's
permission and coming up with magnificent images. ERGO; selling the owner a
ton of dollars worth of prints! ;-) I knew you'd see the wisdom of my
comments sooner or later. :-)
