DHL Redline- 'critique me'

Description

Redline of this

DHL, the number 1 thing that's giving you trouble is not enough construction. You NEEEEEEEEED to take all the masses into account! Otherwise, you are not drawing many important things! Spend more time building the characters, from the bones up! And don't skip any of the major bones!

The gestures and basic idea of the poses are there, you're getting the right idea, you're just not understanding all the joints, the muscles, and the bulk and weight of the characters.

You need to study images like these [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] [link] and learn all the basic muscle areas! Learn where the bones are, how they connect to each other, what muscles connect to them and what basic shape they form together.
If you don't know what muscle you're trying to draw, how can you expect it to look good at all?

Also, I just read that the other dog is supposed to be a cattle dog mix (blue heeler). In that case, take a good, long look at what heelers look like: they're very different in body than what you drew.
