To be needlessly pedantic again here(it's fun!), placement of the ear canals is more important than the ears themselves. Skulls made for large brains tend to limit upward options.
I know there's possibly physiological components to this (location of the temporal lobe and all that), but at that point, my aesthetic preferences win out! It's not like artists did that based on physiological/biological reasoning either!
On the other hand, vacuum bandages and skin-tight costumes ala Wetsern comic books/Capcom fighters have always looked dumb to me, but it's pretty much due to people being too lazy to deal with drapery and cloth physics (if it isn't about just fanservicing) so..
And overdefinition of muscles despite being covered with fur is also kind of dumb.
The wolf dude sketch Ookami-kun posted looks good to me. Furry, not too many dudebro muscles, and adequately animal-like head.
