All f2.8
All these shots seem to have a good focus... which is good seeing as your dealing with f/2.8. However, I'm not seeing anything amazing about these shots. Doesn't look like you really thought about composition; they all just look like you pointed at the subject and shot. I would also work on lighting, as neither the dogs or the boy seem to have a catch light in their eyes. That is usually important when doing a portrait of a person and even an animal. Looks like you were working with midday, bright sunlight; shooting in the morning or evening gives you better lighting, and you can get the person or animal to face towards the sun without blinding them.
Another option in this type of lighting is using a reflector. In the last picture of the boy, you could've held a small reflector to the camera left, which would've left some light in his eyes.
Think more about composition and lighting. Just getting a picture in focus and on the subject is not enough.
