Essentially, saving the model only saves the geometry. In order to save all the rigging that you've applied (ie: bones, animation modifiers, expressions, etc), then you need to save it within the scene.

In order to make use of these modifiers in other scenes, take a look for the 'Load Objects From Scene' command in Layout. This will then load the object plus all the saved rigging.

If you only want to save the models new geometry configuration after transforming it in Layout, then simply use the 'Save Transformed' command from Layout.
