Doing good! I see improvement from the last time I've seen a run cycle from you, the lines are neater and the animation is much less choppy. A few suggestions with the animation, I see the use of copying frames. Though in reality even if an animal was running in place, then every part of it would be moving. Copying frames is much easier, though it makes the animal running look stiff. Try drawing each frame individually to fix this. Though just doing that won't fix it completely, what I see from most beginning run cycles is the animator almost seems too afraid to take risks with the movement of the animal. Staying in the safety zone is never good, as you won't improve as quickly when it comes to animating. Try stretching out the limbs, pulling them in farther, experiment with how the animal's movement/position is impacted every time it's paws hit the ground. Though it may not come out perfect the first time, you'll see what looks right and what looks wrong.

Now going onto the anatomy, You can obviously tell it's an animal. And by identifying features like the tail shape and droopy ears it could possibly be a dog? Though the head is slightly too small, experiment with other sizes and find what looks right for you or look at references. The fur as animating seems to move around un-naturally, try using the onionskin for that as well, just re draw the same frame instead of drawing it my memory. the tail looks quite stiff as well, try to add some sort of drag. Onto the stripe on it's muzzle, what is it doing? It looks like it's pulsing, is this intended?

Some people can't draw as good as others, and I'm pretty young so I don't really mind the small details. I'll improve as I grow up, thx for advice though.

Sorry for a late response, but being young is never an excuse. You either take a challenge or not, and putting it off for when your older is never a good idea. If you start now, you'll be even better if you're older. And yes, some artists are better then others, but everybody has the potential to be a great artist, you just have to take the challenge.
