I gave this a six because I liked the photo, but it really was a bit off-topic. That probably held your score down.

I think it might look better without the 3rd dog? Just my opinion though! I think this could sell well as a print, shame it didn't do better in the challenge, i really like it :)

I object. Pets are not toys and any attempts to use them as props in a photo contest is deplorable. Well, something to that effect if not so sombre. Would make a great candid.

Nice DOF, the child and dog seem a tad soft, but nothing serious to detract from this wonderful, emotional shot. Well done.

I like how the subjects are in focus and the background is a little blurred.. i also like the angle of this shot. Nice work.

Different from the other entries in that it is not ACTUALLY a TOY, but the expressions are pricelss, the child just pouring all her heart into that hug and the dog just seeming so tolerant. I'm not sure this meets the challenge, and if I'm being 100% honest, there are some slight distractions in the image, BUT, IMO, when the overall message is so well conveyed and the shot so nice, I overlook those things. 9
