in #4 I'd take out that black thing [ ? helicopter ] in the sky - it's distracting as you can't really see what it is . Because it's there and very dark it's commanding attention and drawing your eye away from the rest of the picture.

The dark thing is a bird TT! Time for a trip to Specsavers methinks
I like the last two the most, though I'm a bit concerned about that horizon.
Polo's photo would have been better if you'd been down at his level.

The two doggie shots are lovely.
Were you holding up a treat to take shot #2 ? That's pretty much the post my dogs make when they're begging/waiting
#3 of the two doggies facing up is a superb moment caught! - Just a note on the composition ... You obviously inadvertently cropped off the bit of tail on left hand doggie (I do this all the time - I oughta pay more attention to the edges of the viewfinder ) - what I would do is crop a similar amount off the tail of the right hand doggie.
You could also make a cool variation of this shot by cropping right in just at the back of the neck at each doggie for a more close up 'face off'

Emma yes - without the bird [ Gwyn if have a lappy with a 13in screen !! ] that is a great improvement
I love the 2 dogs challenging each other - it's better with the bone as it tells a story

Absolutely love the shot of the two dogs: very involving. Boats are pretty tidy, as well.
Best wishes,
