Nice shots. The second one is great! One of those shots you could never plan.
My 2 cents: Darn stick is in the way of the doggy on the left. It might have looked better with the left side dog closer, but then again maybe not. I kind of like the way you have to look across the picture.
The chain is a little distracting in the last shot and the dog looks a bit out of focus. I've got a beagle that will run like the wind if I let him off the leash, so I've become a little creative hiding it in pictures. The extendable leashes help a bit. Pull it out and lock it, hide it behind the dog and then stand on the other end!
All in all, they're nice shots. I know how hard it can be to get dogs to sit still long enough for a nice shot, and you did good.

Eric Thanx Eric for the comments. I agree with all, especially regarding the stick in front of the dogs mouth. I'm planning on trying some PS hocus pocus to make it disappear, just haven't had time to get to it yet (it's amazing how a 2 1/2 year old and a 4 month old can eat up all your free time for things like that). As for the positioning of the critters in the 1st pic, I had to take what I could get, none of the subjects listen too well. And the chain in the 3rd, well that was a pic where i just happened to look up and saw the 2 lying next to each other - had to grab it while I could.
Thanx again all for looking and the comments, they are appreciated. Kevin.
