Tips to maximize your impact

Second dagger on a bleeding target
Recast Darkin Daggers (Q) on a target that's already bleeding: the second dagger deals the rest of the bleed plus damage based on their missing health, and heals you.
Call your pack back to heal it
When your pack has taken hits, cast Eviscerate (E): your packmates come back to you at full health.
Empower your pack before you engage
Cast The Call of the Pack (W) just before you engage: you're briefly untargetable, your pack grows, and you gain AD and move speed.
Push, then look for an isolated target
Push your wave, then roam toward an isolated champion: with Hounds' Pursuit (R), you and your pack dash onto them, and a takedown lets you recast it.

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

Stay behind your minions
Keep minions between you and her: Charm (E) stops on the first enemy hit, and without it her burst lands far less often.
Dodge the return of her orb
If you can only dodge one pass of Orb of Deception (Q), dodge the return: it deals true damage, which your resistances don't reduce.
Play hard when her R is down
Play hard once she has used the dashes of Spirit Rush (R): she has nothing left to escape with, and its cooldown is 140 to 100 seconds.
Group up when she roams
When she roams, avoid walking through the jungle alone: Charm (E) then Spirit Rush (R) let her catch an isolated target by surprise.
