I'd say it's meant to be a mountain lion with some dog-like characteristics. Its legs don't exactly match the structure of typical cats/dog, rather like the eevees don't tend to resemble cats/dogs/foxes exactly perfectly.

Except Lions and Hyenas regularly get into it because they share the same territory.

It'd be like if the Bloods and Crips both lived on the same street across from each other instead of on the North/South Sides of town for instance.

I think the animal that that has the most similarities with all the eeveelutions is the fennec fox, which would make them closer to canines.

They're based on the three beasts that Dante meets before his descent into hell. The Lion, which represents pride "with it's head held high". Notice who has the highest head. The she-wolf, which represents either lust or greed (the lust can be explained with the feminine looking body of Suicune, while the greed can be represented by the thinness of the monster " She’s got nothing... and she wants it all"). Finally the Leopard, which represents Fraudulence. Raikou looks like it is raising it's leg out of pain, but this is only to try and fake the trainer into leaving it be. They run around trying to distract the player from reaching enlightenment (catching Lugia or Ho-oh), much like how the three beasts in the poem try to stop Dante from reaching his enlightenment.

Hyenas could be an example of convergent evolution, bears and dogs have a more commonly related ancestor than dogs an hyenas do
Carnivora is divided into 2 major groups
Caniformes
Canines
Bears
Racoons and their allies
Mustelids
Skunks (not considered a mustelid anymore)
arguably pinnipeds

and feliformes
Hyenas
Felines
Civets and their allies (Fossa binturong)
Mongooses and their allies

while Hyenas belong to the feliforme group they are not felines they are just more closely related to them than they would be members of the caniform group.
