TOPIC | Doggo drawing advice requested
I know there are artists out there who are much better at drawing doggos than I am. I would like some help if anyone is willing to offer? I'm trying to draw a good, fluid motion of this wolf. It starts out as mostly from the side view of the head and neck, then turns from the chest until you see the back in the tail and hind quarters. I'm struggling though with the positioning of the legs... I don't think you'd see much of the back legs since the view is looking down on the wolf but the front legs are just ???? I want a way to draw them in which they'd look accurate but also not stiff. [img]https://i.imgur.com/aV5fzOJ.jpg[/img] I would really appreciate any help or tips anyone can give, thank you! (P.S. I am subbed)

As you can see from these, the head tends to point downwards more than looking up at either direction

No expert in Canidae anatomy but something like this looks good:

Thank you both for your help! I was having a hard time finding references close to the pose I was trying to go for.
