I don’t think you need the numbers as you would naturally describe the top first. I also think it could be per bend sinister, bendy of 8 or and gules, bendy of 8 azure and or, though I think you suggestion is cleaner.

Probably the wolves have moors’ heads in their mouths. Time to revise these arms…
I would suggest a slogan:
Say no to racism! Keep the moors’ heads in the coat-of-arms!

I’d be curious to see a blazon for this fella.
Is the ‘outline’ of the Santiago cross officially blazoned as ‘or’, or did the artist
make a decision to depict it as such for the sake of clarity?

However it rather seems that the stuff in wolfes’ mouths is not the heads. Too small for sheeps which would be otherwise almost obvious. Maybe baby wolfes carefully transported by parents?

The arms are blazoned in Spanish as
"En campo de púrpura, Cruz de Santiago perfilada de oro, acompañada en la diestra por cuatro órbitas electrónicas de oro, en la siniestra por un electrodo con dos rayos salientes de oro y en la punta por estrella de cinco puntas perfilada de sable (negro)."
On a purpure field a Santiago Cross fimbriated Or accompanied on the dexter side of four electronic orbits Or and on the sinister side one electrode of two flashes Or and in base a star of five points [Or] profiled Sable.

The "Santiago Cross" is red by definition? In other words, it would bear a different name if coloured green or blue? If so, I understand the "fimbriation". I don’t like it, but I understand it.
Yes a Santiago Cross appears to be red by default, this is from the insignia of the Order of Santiago (St. James). The Order was religious-military organisation (much like similar organizations in the Holy Land) who fought against the Moors in the Iberian Peninsula. Following the death of its grandmaster Alonso de Cárdenas in 1493 the Order was united to the Crown of Spain.
