Description If you can't read any of the messy handwriting, let me know and I'll tell you what it says. XD Anyway, drew this in Wisconsin because Koa desperately needs a better ref sheet. I know it isn't great, but it's a lot more helpful than the old one.

Backstory for Koa (not 100% sure I will keep it, so ignore it if you want):
Koa is part Alaskan husky and part grey wolf, and used to belong to a couple who made money by selling what were used as guard dogs with the loyalty of a dog but the aggressive and wild behaviors of the wolf. Stronger than most of the other hybrid dogs, the pup was soon sold to a family that wanted a guard dog for their home against the wild animals that lived around the small Alaskan town. Koa was tied to the front porch of the house by a short rope from which she was never let out of. One day, a fire got out of control in the wood house, causing it to burn down and killing the people inside. As the house burned down, Koa tried to escape from the rope and run away from the flames, but the flames were starting to eat away at the base of the rope, climbing more and more towards her. In a desperate attempt, she plunged her muzzle and face into the fire to bite the rope where it was burnt and thin, and snapped the rope. The rope fell from her neck, still burning at her paws, and she dashed off into the woods, running from the fire. She got burned badly on the muzzle, and the fur was all but gone on the top of it. When it finally regrew, some of the fur grew back charcoal black, in a mysterious flame-looking marking. Today, Koa roams the forests of the small town, and is seldom seen, and when sightings do occur, she disappears almost as swiftly as she appears, causing the locals to believe she is a ghost dog, and that she died in the house fire. They believe that she is a kind of bad omen, and that is she is seen wandering by a house that disaster will soon hit the home or it's inhabitants. To this day, Koa is extremely afraid of fire, and attempts to avoid it as much as possible, while still carrying out her new life as a normal wolf.
