Needs more fill light by the eyes IMO.  When I see portrait shots I really want to see a ton of detail in the eyes but that's me, who knows what the pros do/want/feel.
 Saturation is fine IMO but it looks like the clarity is a little high for a portrait, at least IMO.
 
 And let me guess, 50mm lens?

Have you thought about putting one AB up high shooting down at like 45 degrees and one low and shooting up at 45 degrees with the lower one a little softer then the top one?  
 When I shoot at work a lot of product pictures I've found that 2 lights on different sides at about 45 degrees I get better results then just using one facing right at it.
 
 If I'm backlighting then I use one of my ABs high at 45 degrees facing the product then use a bounce board in white to reflect back up.

I call this one "Self-portrait, motherfucker!" A little too much saturation?? 
 Definitely overdid the clarity or high pass...

It's not THAT bad...  But yes, too much clarity/high pass/sharpening/etc...

Cool idea man, I like that.  Are you "shooting from the hip" as you walk by?

Yeah, mid-stride. I really need to start manually focusing at smaller apertures when doing it. Auto focus isn't that reliable when doing it.

What you need to do is take more creeper pics.

I'd like to see those dust spots and hair removed.  The composition is nice though, has potential.

The paw doesn't really bother me and I agree with scooter, a little bit of a crop wouldn't hurt the image and focus more on her head so the paw would be all but irrelevant.
