Great work!
Only things that stand out to me, is maybe you could try using the ears for expression (perking up slightly, drooping down, etc) instead of just being secondary motion.
Also the blue bounce light in the shadows is odd, generally you should keep shadows on skin pretty warm (but that's a lighting/texturing thing)

the eyebrows/acting also end a little abruptly at the end? I would just extend the timeline by an extra....idk 15-20 frames and make sure they're eased.

Overall, really great character work! Probably top 5 of all the submissions I've seen so far!
