So what did this photographer do right?
The dog is framed by the basket.
The subject is looking right in the camera.
Medium Depth of Field so the head is sharp but the body slowly fads out of focus.
Colorful prop makes the puppy really stand out.

Pet Photography Tips 
I am so glad that you liked my Flickr photo so much that you included it on this page.
I enjoy when people use my Creative Commons photos that I work hard on, but as I noted on Flickr (below the photo) I require that they provide me credit to my rentvine.com site.
Please add my link when you can.
Thanks, Dave Dugdale
Thanks Dave. I have made the change.
So how come the first dog looking right at the camera doesn’t have the funny-lit eyes?
What a great question Kelly. So great I decided to write a post about it. Check it out…. What Do My Dogs Eyes Have a “Ghostly Green Glow” in Photographs?
