This has really captured the "dog look" that characterises this kind of dog. Eyes are key here. Are you sure it was the Philippines? I lost the house on one just like it at Hall Green dog track in Brum His eyes are saying: " I hope it's not that Jock who bet on me at the door :D
 
Ha Ha !! Yes it WAS in Bairan, Cebu, Philppines -- we were visiting and 'Old Uncle' and family of my Wife.
 
It says "I love you" in Dog speak. Better learn to read this pretty quick, Pal. Logan
 
The dog itself is nicely captured.
I find the shadow in the bottom left and the something (table leg?) top left to be distracting.
I wonder if you were to crop it slightly tigher (maybe an 8x10 ratio) keeping the top and right sides the same, just pulling in on the bottom and left, would it be stronger? You can trim those two distractions while still keeping a bit of empty space between the dog and the frame. The only issue with that cropping is that it makes for an odd balance, the dog top left, and lots of empty space bottom right, sperated on a diagonal line. If you haven't already, give it a shot and see if you prefer the different crop.
