Description
After reading comments from several of you on the first posting, I have re-rendered the image and touched up a few areas. So here is basically the same image as my last post in a smaller size (half the size) with a higher res dog.
Thanks to Greywolf44, Daddywolf & grafikeer for their valuable feedback. I look forward to hearing what you have to say!
Thanks for stopping buy and for any comments, favs or rating.

Much better,although the dog still bothers me but that is minor...excellent realism,especially the legs beneath the water!
I agree, the DAZ Puppy just doesn't quite cut it. I played with him quite a bit and even rendered him using the 3Delight engine to try to get better results, then overlaid him into the IRay render. Sadly, it is still not quite right... I looked at the full version of the tow images myself and I can really see the improvement with the smaller of the tow. I guess rendering at 3800x2600 isn't worth it when the image becomes so degraded to make the files small enough for posting.
Excellent image and scene, the water reflections and shadows are amazing!
100% better, JD. Size DOES matter! Ya just have to know how to use it (LOL). I like.
LOL, thanks!
Very good. The dog is ok for me. I don't see any good hair/fur shader for IRAY so render an animal is not easy
Looks really good , infact I wish I was the dalmation lol :)
