heyas; when you save a pose, you can select a subset, but i think you need the patch to do that. but what i think you may actually want to do is just apply the animation to the dwarf, then open the hip in the animation palette (the big one, not the tiny drawer at the bottom of the screen), and delete, say, the ytrans across the whole animation. then put him back on the floor at frame 1, and things should be pretty much okay from there on in. also check the body y-trans, too.
