rigging and weighting need help

i am weighting this dog, as you can see in the image the weighting is some what very difficult to acchive,

do i need to extend the geometry, or do i need to add some isoparm in the body, or do i need to make the body and leg as one object?

for almost 5 days i am stuck in this scene figuring out how to attain a realistic dog movement.

any comments are highly appreciated.

thanx

If its nurbs or sub-d you can use edit membership tool to assign points to different joints..... You can also make the geometry a bit long as well...

thanx, but i'm wondering what to use,

i am much inclined to soft bind, but some says that it is more intuitive to use the combination of rigid bind and soft bind. could someone tell me the pros and con of the two?

thanx a lot.

Well if your sticking with nurbs.... rugid bind so you can use flexors, but if your going poly smooth is best..... and you can paint the weights and use blenshapes for some of the hard defromations.

4 legged characters are a bit harder to weight than humans.

i guess i'll try the rigid bind, this character gives me an adrenalin rush, its hard but its pretty challenging, thanx kurt.
