That is more of a house rules kind off thing.
You can base him off a 9HD (advanced from 8) Dire Lion (with the strength bonus swapping) instead of a 5HD Lion, esp since a sabretooth is in fact an older and more primal version of modern cats anyway. For now I don't see a problem allowing him to advance in HD as you advance in levels. He would advance with Cleric BaB and good Fort and Ref saves, and become Huge at 17HD. It does not seem too powerful considering that you could theoretically get a new advanced sabretooth every level that has one HD more than the last one, and this is obviously better RP-wise.
At some point, of course, you could choose to Awaken him, but then you'd have to take him as a cohort and he would have to be one HD lower than you. You also probably would not have a sufficient leadership score, but in this case I might waive that.
The best way to buff him up though is with buffing spells like GMF, Animal Growth, etc.

this is exactly what i want to do...for he is the representative of my people (call it a totemic spirit) as we are all from the north and this would be the symbol of my people.
And yes i plan on awakening him and taking him as my cohort later on for to me it would be the same as talking directly to my ancestors and that he would be inhabited by a member or ancestor of my tribe...
Also note this guy has an aversion to metal for he finds it highly restrictive and not as close to being 'true' to nature.
