There's a nice character thing you've got going on, like a casual, springy walk. Its cool. Look at this giraffe ref. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh2yveXTKaU Notice how the hind legs come forward and almost kick the front legs forward? This is common with a lot of quad creatures. However, it doesn't happen in your anim.
Also, the whole body is moving up and down as a single piece. Usually, the hips are offfset with the chest but see what is right for a giraffe.
The screen left front leg goes back but then stops for a moment before lifting off the ground, it feels awkward. Same with the screen right front leg, there seems to be a pause midway as its on the ground travelling back.
I would really try to grab some great reference of a giraffe walk and really see how and why each body part does what it does.
