That would depend on what you are trying to achieve.

I would very lightly fill flash (adjusting the white ballance to suit)

I might have tried to frame it with the line of the dog's head running up and down

What I would have liked was a little more clarity in the background (depth of field?) and a little less shadow on the left. Thanks again!!

I like it. The composition is excellent and i am drawn towards sympathy for the dog as a result of it's expression. You've captured the dog's mood really well. Having one eye in the dark seems to accentuate the dog's remorse.

As for Post-Processing i would do the following

Unsharp Mask
Adjust contrast
Adjust white balance
Reduce the light side of the curve
Increase the dark side of the curve
Run it through colour noise reduction

But that's what i would do normally anyway to any photo i term a 'keeper'.
