I like the shot of the Husky. If you have a PP program, I'd get rid of the yellow bag in the background.
#2 is out of focus but would make a great subject (I've got one similar I can post if you are interested)
#3 I just am not feeling a cohesive composition or a subject that you felt strobgly about conveying to us.
Keep shooting.

I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, a good photographer, NOR a critic of any kind (unless it concerns art or a horse), but I took the liberty of PPing this, only to show you what I'd have done if it were mine.
I cropped, got rid of the yellow bag and the pole, added some shadow behind the tail so it wouldn't blend in with the rock, took the rock out from under his mouth (EEK, or did he have something white IN his mouth...?) I greened the grass a little more, very, very slightly blued his eye, brightened, contrasted and sharpened the whole thing. I'm sure the pros here can do far better!

It would appear that you are letting your camera decide it's own focusing point. You should be able to adjust the focusing points on your camera so that you decide where it should focus. Or just go to manual focus and focus on what you think should be in focus.
For example, I would think your focus point was the pine cone, but your camera focused itself closer than that.

Here's a couple of the Pine Cone shots. As someone said, your camera probably focused and if you didnt maintain your finger on the shutter it picked up another focal point as you fired.

yes.....do you have it on multipoint focus, or center point. (to focus on the husky.) I think #1 and #3 are under exposed. With a T3 (maybe my next camera) start out on auto.( read the manual,read the manual.) It's a learning process. I look back on pics I took three and thirty years ago hoping to see improvement...... and thats what is important, (not to compare mine with others ,but is my skill better than yesterday)....

It's better, but the background is still distracting
