At the top, draw a smooth line that consistently connects all the circles and goes into the tail. Define the position of the limbs using thin lines.
- Add the lower outline of the torso.
At the bottom, draw a connecting line in the same way as you did in the previous step. This way you will draw the neck, belly and lower part of the tail.
- Sketch out the front part of the muzzle.
Adjust the shape of the head and finish the front part. Draw the protruding parts in the place where the superciliary arch, nose, and chin will be.
- Draw elements of the muzzle.
Carefully draw the eye which is almond shaped, inside the eye add the pupil. Draw the nose and with the help of smooth lines draw the mouth.

At the bottom, add rounded feet. Draw the toes on both paws using small, rounded lines.

Now it’s time to draw the hind legs. Use smooth lines and try to depict all the physiological curves of the body.
- Depict the bottom of the hind legs.
Finish drawing the paws and add feet on each hind paw. Draw the fingers in the same way as you did for the front paws.
- Correct inaccuracies.
Remove all auxiliary lines with the eraser, they are no longer needed. If you suddenly see inaccuracies, then correct them at this stage.
