Okay for starters heads are more than circles, I recommend if you don't know how to draw them to look up references to them or I am always here to help! I might not be the best but I have a basic understanding of the way heads work. My art isn't realistic either so if you're going to try and learn realistic I can try my best but I'm just getting a grasp on them myself.
Next, bodies from my understanding look something like headOoOtail. Blue is a corgi mix so the body would be a tad shorter but the height you have it at is nice. The tail would also be a bit fatter but again, you're just starting out and everyone always has room to improve!
Paws, these are tricky. Trust me I'm still trying to get better at them and I've been drawing them for a loooong time. Paws have a bit more of a round shape to them, if you'd like to look at it I've included a redline of this with some paws off to the side.
[link] Remember, I'm always here to help and be a friend if you'd like! Sorry the lines on mine look crummy by the way my tablet pressure turned off a bit ago.
To begin , all dogs have a hock and a stifle . The hock should always be lines up , unless in a position which allows it to be not lined up . But here i don't see a hock /or/ a stifle , so that's a big problem . I would suggest Googling it .
Second , the ears should be slightly bent at the tip . And I would suggest not using a black outline to separate the colours . The dog should have a muzzle , and the hair should be a little shorter . I would suggest doing a better colouring job , filling in those white spots . The paws should be more , um , "paw like" , such as they shouldn't be little ovals . And the tail should just be a /little bit/ shorter , not a lot .
Overall this is a really cute picture to be honest , but with a little more anatomy it would be even more cute ^ v ^
