For anyone who also wanted it I found it on Amazon and Barnes & Noble websites. Also found the other ones too
Amazon : This book | Draw More Furries | Furries Furever
Barnes & Noble : This book | Draw More Furries | Furries Furever
My local Michael's has them too.
Here's the book on Amazon if anyone's curious
I'd recommend studying this book: https://www.amazon.com/Draw-Furries-Anthropomorphic-Fantasy-Animals/dp/1600614175 . I bought it when i was a kid, and as my skills grew over time, i was able to follow the tutorials and now i have a style of my own that looks nice. Your work looks great for your first attempt. So im certain once you practice diligently over the next year or so, you'll improve tons!
Here are a few sites that I have found useful in developing as a furry artist:
As others have said, focusing solely on anthro art isn't as effective a method as developing as an artist as becoming a well rounded artist in general, even if your only goal is to become a great furry artist. Becoming thoroughly familiar human and animal anatomy and being able to draw them well will bring you 90% of the way to where you need to be to draw good furry art and the rest is putting them together through lots and lots of practice. Good luck!
As a non artist, I cannot vouch for the quality, but I have seen these mentioned before

But there's tons and tons of free tutorials online as well.

I picked up that particular book (I assume it's this one ). And I agree, it's really, really dumbed down. If you just google "how to draw anthros" or "anthro line art" you'll find plenty of free blogs and the like with just as much information as the book. It's not that the book is bad, it's just not worth what I paid for it.
/u/jackiebird has some great suggestions, but I'd also like to add Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. It's not specific to anthro drawing, but gives a LOT of good concepts to build a foundation. It focuses primarily on how to get into the proper mindset for drawing and it really helped me get started (even though I still have a lot of practice ahead). It's targeted specifically at beginners.
