If I could criticise any, it would be the alabai ones, I think alabais usually aren't that tall and suspect those individual alabais aren't. I'd probably dock about 2 inches of them (I mean, to scale). I can't find fault with any of the rest, honestly. Maybe, I think because the wolfs head isn’t up like some of the dogs it might make it looks a little shorter then it is, for example in the second pic the alabai head is higher then the Wolf but it’s a little shorter at the shoulder, I probably should’ve used a better wolf pic |

No I think stick with the same wolf pic for all. I'm going by shoulder height. To me it seems the alabais are equal in shoulder height to the wolf? And (assuming it's a near-max pacific NW wolf, and it should be) I think the alabai should be JUST a little shorter. I don't think they can be 36 inches, or if they are very rarely. I think they are usually more like 32-34.

Kangals and great danes really are often 36 inches. The dane one had me double-taking a little due to the head-position, but when I measured the shoulders it was spot on. So it is good, kangals look good. The rest all seem accurate. Only alabai and only by a TINY amount looks a little "flattering" to the alabai's height.

Mature adult male pacific NW wolves are usually over 34 inches and regularly 36. The odd freak is higher.

If we go "average" they all come down. I always imagine "max non-freak" as kind of the best height to use, but I admit that is kind of vague. I know in my head what the "max non-freak" is for everything, but it is a big ask for other people to understand. I just think "average" is deceptively different from the reality of a good mature specimen.

The freakish visual size of wolves is the reason they are the most lied about and over-exaggerated animal weight-wise. People just can't compute that they could possibly look so huge being held up by a hunter and then weigh 115 lbs, but that is just the way it is.

Lab and wolf, I’m surprised I didn’t have one for what most consider the standard dog Attachments:
