Well, that's my second choice. ;)

20HD Medium magical beast with lots of SR, then? Some type of enchanting aura/gaze attack, immunity to magic, and energy drain on capture?

Let's figure out ability scores:

Moon Dog (M): Str 16, Dex 15, Con 12, Int 15, Wis 16, Cha 17
Shadow Mastiff (M): Str 17, Dex 13, Con 17, Int 4, Wis 12, Cha 13
Blink Dog (M): Str 10, Dex 17, Con 10, Int 10, Wis 13, Cha 11
Yeth Hound (M): Str 17, Dex 15, Con 15, Int 6, Wis 14, Cha 10

We know Int is 17-18, so how about...

Str 14, Dex 17, Con 15, Int 18, Wis 19, Cha 20?
 

Let's stick with that provisionally, but we may need to boost some of those to fit the high HD.

I prefer your original idea of making them Fey.

I'd also give them a higher Wisdom and Charisma than that. These creatures are like a canine version of a Unicorn and have 20 Hit Dice too boot!

An SRD unicorn has Wis 21 and Cha 24. If you advanced one by another 16 HD it would get 4 ability advances.

So I'm thinking something like Wis 23 and Cha 26 for the Silver Dog...

Except with the unicorn comparison, we must now note that unicorns are magical beasts!

I do agree with the boost to Wis and Cha for the same reasons.
