Surprised there have been no comments on this.
A good example of what the Tammy can achieve, Like the colour of the collar and the Bokeh, not so sure on the reflection in the top half of the eye though.
Don`t normally "do" dog shots, but this is a good un.

It's a technically competent photo, the crop is good, focus and DOF are good. The background is nice. But it simply doesn't do much for me I'm afraid. I love dogs, but this just seems like a fairly ordinary photo of a healthy-looking dog. I think it needs a little something extra to raise it up a notch.

I quite like the reflected horizon in his eyes. A close-up of that could be very cool Especially if that little dot on the horizon is a rabbit or something
