I was looking for a set of dog legs so I could convert them onto a small dog person for a sci fi RPG my friends and I were making, but I couldn't find any. Does anyone know where I could get some?

Off the top of my head, and in the hopes of people taking offense to my suggestion, you could use a pair of bloodletter or kroot legs. You will however have to file stuff off and fix it, but I can't think of anything else readily available in bits that has that kind of leg shape, and these are about as close as I can think of it getting.

I am assuming you are getting the upper body of a humanoid and you just want the rear end to be more dog-like

It doesn't matter how bloody far the apple falls from the tree. If the apple fell off of a Granny Smith, that apple is going to grow into a Granny bloody Smith. The only difference is whether that apple grows in the shade of the tree it fell from.

Try a Model Hobby shop that sells Scale train scenery. they usually have people, pets, cars, homes, bridges etc.

They have stuff for all kinds of different scales.

Space wolf wolves legs maybe? Might be too expensive though

Wolf models would definitely be the place to start. The model will need to wear some sort of trousers though - few wolf models will be standing up on their back legs

So you need dog legs to make a human-esque dog man? A wolf would work for legs but it needs to be in the standing position... Sounds like a werewolf, eh?

So I was browsing coolminiornot.com today and saw some stuff and recalled reading this thread. Not sure how much converting you wanted to do compared to the original models but figured these might be possible options for you:

CMON usually has some fairly obscure miniatures available in their store and I've always had great service from them when ordering... Hope this helps.
