I know this pose... the nonchalant look in the eye, just begging you to come in and try to take his toy. I think I like this best because of the lack of eye contact. Fabulous and should have rated MUCH higher.

If I were to change anything, I like the vertical narowness, but it would be not so closely cropped to his face on the right...

Nice and sharp and I like the pose. Nice catchlights in the eyes too. I'd love to see this same shot on a dark background. I think it would really show off the beautiful color of the fur.

Good dog...

The crop seems a bit tight. Did you try it with more space above the dog?
