Maggie the beagle is my mothers dog. She is 1 year old and very photogenic. No edit except for resize. What could display best friends more than the relationship a dog has with a bone and her ball. All her favourite things right there.

Its funny how everyone commented on the grass at the front of the photo, I didn't actually use a flash, it was just sunny, and the camera was basically sitting on the ground. But not bad for a first attempt.
The bright, blurry stuff in the foreground seriously detracts from this shot. Next time try turning the flash off or shooting from another vantage point.
The bone and ball are hard to see with the blurry grass in the foreground. Without the title I may not have even noticed them. The dog is awesome and in great focus though.
The overexposed foreground is basically killing this shot. Unless you wanted it to look like he was a hellhound surrounded by flames. The perspective is good and his expression is also good, it's just that icky golden blur in front.
