I wasnt sure how to do the shadow properly so I ended up just using the clone over a picture of a dog. Any advice on a better method?

I am relatively new to this whole photomashop. I'll have a bit perusal of those tutorials...

but I usually take a cutout of the foreground object, slip it in between the layers, fill it black, distort it by various means (flip, shear etc.) until the perspective looks sort of right, give it a bit of blur depending on focus and light source, and twiddle the transparency.
and if that doesn't work I forget about it and say it's a vampire or something
