I think it's leaning too much back. Predators lean more forward when
they are ready to attack. That looks like an overly defensive posture,
if not even scared.

Very similar to that of a dog. They are cousins after all.
Mouth open, lips pulled up, ears lowered and to the back, legs somewhat
tetracted and ready to pounce, usualy, looking straight at what it's
menassing.

It looks ready to play. The ears are straight up.

Sorry the photo you linked to showed a dog crouching. I thought that was you
wanted.
If you don't want to give away your idea email me with more details please.

That fox chacing a mouse is not agressive. He don't need to be agressive
in this case, just quick!
Most canines, when agressive are stationary, mouth somewhat open, not
fully open, thong totaly inside the mouth, lips pulled to beter show the
theet, legs retracted and in a position to beter pounce on the opponent,
ears down and back so that they are less exposed, tail straight and low
or horizontal.

I've not had a dog for over 30 years :(
The modle is based on a cat's body and I think it shows a bit.

It is what I wanted. Compare the legs of the dog in the photo and the
legs in your fox image. The fox is almost laying down, rather than
crouching, ready to attack.

The dog is alert, but not in attack posture. The key is largely the ears:
forward for calm, out to the sides for alert, and flattened back for
aggressive. Anyway, those are nifty models! Are they yours? If so, are you
considering adding them to the object collection?

The posture in the photo would work great for the image I have in mind.
