Oooh wooooow I'm loving these! I know there has been mixed opinions so far about the male's anatomy/facial expression but personally I love him the way he is.
It's very hard to crit fantasy creature anatomy. They are obviously based on bears, but they aren't bears...So I find it hard to judge if I should say "this part isn't bear-like enough" or just accept it as part of the creature that is uniquely morkko xD
But let's say, hypothetically, that you want them to be more bear like..In that case, I would agree with the criticism I saw (I don't remember who said it, sorry) to make the rumps a bit larger. Bears have big butts, and I cannot lie...And I also agree that the female could be floofed up a bit.
As for the criticism they are too wolf-like..I respectfully disagree. Bears and wolves share a lot of common features to begin with (both are part of the Caniformia suborder, which literally means "dog-like") but either way when I saw this design it immediately read as bear-like to me.

The only other things are the baby girl's snout is a bit off to me? I feel like the top part is too thick, and the bottom part is too thin. Like she doesn't have a chin, just a bottom lip. xD And also I agree the claws are a tad too long. If they extend farther downward than the bottom of the foot, it would be painful for them to walk on.
The female's expression also looks a bit...sinister? Like she's plotting 6 different clever ways to kill me...lol
I love that she has a much fiercer expression than the old, doe-eyed female. It suits her more. But maybe tone down the smirk? Maybe give her a small snarl or frown instead. Just my personal opinion though.

Anyways, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new line-art so far (especially the baby boy's lil tummy! And the girl's cute lil front paws d'aawwww). And I actually like the accessories, though I see not everyone agrees on that either haha
Overall, the artist is doing a fantastic job!

I ended up writing a lot more than I thought I would lmao

Summary of General Consensus so far after reading the thread:

1. Amazing revamp overall. Almost no-one has said they like it less then the current version.

Baby Female:
* Lower lip seems too small to some
* Far right leg seems 'wrong' to many

Baby Male:
* Only minor critiques. Nothing that stood out to me as the same from multiple people.
*((Just me: The chest hair line is really vertical and it bothers me. I seem to be the only one though.))

Adult's In General:
* While beads and feathers are fine many would like the bracelet to be an optional mutation to preserve 'wildness' in their pets.
*Claws are too large to many
*Paw pads should not be visible on the fronts of the weight supporting paws according to one person (but Google agrees...)
*Hind quarters should be bulkier according to a few people.

Adult Female:
*Seems a bit too evil according to several people. Curling the lips up or down a bit is a suggested fix.
* The teeth are too far back in the female's mouth for several people.

Adult Male:
*Some thing the expression is too aggressive.
*Many think that the mouth/muzzle/head in general needs to be reexamined as something seems "off"...
**Personal suggestion: After any edits the artists chooses to make present it with some base colors thrown down. I think the necklace, mouth, and hair fur are making the face really busy, but with colors it might even it out.

These are amazing! Just a few suggestions:

The adults' paws still seem really big relative to the head. Of course, I'm basing that on bears' proportions, and they aren't actually bears, so maybe that's just how they're supposed to look. :)

The adult male's front right paw seems smaller than the other one, and smaller than the female's foreground front paw. Maybe it's the perspective, or the way he's holding it in the air, or both.

Also, I'd really like to know what color slots will be used for the permanent accessories.

Sorry if some of this has already been said - I didn't read through all 12 pages. All in all, it's a huge improvement, and the artists are doing a wonderful job! :)
