The intent was mostly just a tanking form so he doesn't need super heightened animal senses or anything; maybe it can be "slightly higher than a normal human's smell/hearing" but not to the point of super heightened animal senses? if you wanna just nix any heightened senses I am cool with that too, I was just like "I can fully imagine a scenario where someone asks him to turn into a wolf to track something via scent and then he can't do it and he'll be sad and I'LL be sad because he won't have an excuse to turn into a doggo" but honestly that's minor in the grand scheme of things, so I defer to your judgement!!
