For headers, you need to use the rename header function (right click menu).

Hello

[Dog](Dog.md#what-is-a-dog)

…is not valid. The spaces need %20 or + not -.

These both work:

[Dog](dog#What%20Is%20A%20Dog)

[Dog](dog#What+Is+A+Dog)

If you then select the heading in the target file, right click and choose ‘Rename this heading…’, the syntax should update in the link.

In my tests, the renamed heading changed the two links above to:

[Dog](dog#It%20is%20Not%20a%20Cat)

[Dog](dog#It%20is%20Not%20a%20Cat)

As you can see, internally Obsidian defaults to the %20 version.

Hope this works for you.
