are you working from a sketch you made?
When the only tool you use is a hammer, every problem begins to look like a nail.

z1mmnd14 : I am using CPS to model it with. or call it smooth proxy.. on one of the earlier pages theres a screenshot from within Maya.
Axel: I only sketched the head, and have used reference images from a dog to build the body - and modified the shape a little to get the "puma like" look. - the head sketch is on one of the earlier pages in this thread.
Take care all ..

Your model looks very good as is, however I believe you can enhance it, if you take into account the following:
- The neck of the creature -If puma-like- could be a little shorter perhaps? If it were a real hell hound -lol-, he would have almost always neck pain, as his back muscles would be straining to keep that neck as is. (Even if he did have three heads)
- Maybe the legs can be a little longer? -look at enclosed pic for reference-
- And lastly, the current configuration for the back feet -as can be seen in reference pic- is backwards. I understand you made the model after a dog pic, however all quadrupeds share this reverse front-back feet configuration. Hope this one isn´t so difficult to correct, as this fact is the thing that first sprung up on me when I saw the render.
Feel free to use it at your discretion.
Hope these comments help bud,
By the way, congrats on the baby wip ... hope he renders quickly
