Hey Rob,is that a Snauzer dog(pardon my very bad german spelling :oops: )? Crop would be a good idea and maybe a wider f-stop to throw the background out.

I dont think the crop is a problem here, but perspective certainly is. Getting lower and shooting from eye level with the dog or even lower than it to really get the feeling of him looking up would really have made this shot a corker.
