Sorry for the late response, been a busy week!
This is a pretty little piece you've made here, I really like the cool colors and the northern lights in the background. It's nice that you didn't just use blue like most people, and used purple and green instead, it gives a very mystical, tundra-ish feel. That's not a word but I'm using it anyway.
Anatomy is pretty good, you've got all your proportions correct so that's nice to see. I would suggest maybe studying some video/photo reference for the legs since they seem a bit shaky in terms of shape, but it's overall good (also as someone else mentioned, 99% of canines won't have dew claws on their hind legs. There's a few breeds that do, such as a Beauceron dog, but generally there's only 4 toes back there ;3 )
I like that you have the one ear back and she's looking off to the side, gives her a sneaky look. The pose is a little static though, perhaps if she was walking away, or looking up at the sky, etc. Something a little more interesting than "standing" will help people focus on the subject more, since it's a fine drawing but the colors of the sky are the distracting point here. Though how you have the sky colors on her back and tail is very nice. You should always try and do that, to keep consistent colors in your image. For example, putting a layer on top of this filled with blue and messing with the styles/opacity would help give everything a night-time tint, might help it come together some.
Background could use some detail, especially the ground, but it's fine as a start. if you're using a mouse (which I believe you are? Just going off what I can see) I know that can be really tough to do though.
Overall nice job, you've got a good sense of form and anatomy and a nice eye for color. Keep practicing!

Thanks for the critique ^^
And she is part Beauceron so she has her dewclaw back there. (Beauceron, Canaan dog, Kurdish Kangal are her breeds)
I've got a rather shaky hand, so I use a tablet sine I couldn't draw with a mouse for the life of me.
Thanks for the tips, I'll try fiddling with the opacity and such next drawing!

awesome job on the fur, the way she's kinda looking sideways makes me thing she just did something sinister
