When you're doing an underdrawing for a referenced painting, the most important thing is not line detail, values, or edge quality. It's angles. Don't even bother trying to get the outline to look fur-like, that just introduces problems and ambiguity.

You need to make sure your photo is taped onto your canvas, or resting on the same surface as your canvas, and they need to be as close to perpendicular to your sight as possible. Otherwise your perception of angles will be off.
