I’ve always loved drawing animals. Dogs are a favorite of mine, but I never had much luck with them, so I decided to compile some tips and tricks that help me bring my dog drawings to life. I hope they help you too.
Note: this is a very long post.
Step 1: Choose your pencils.
I like using Pitt medium pencils for the main sketching and shading, and a mechanical pencil for the fine detail work. I also use a kneadable eraser for erasing mistakes and adding highlights.
A lot of people have different preferences, so try a few out until you find what works best for you!
Step 2: Sketch rough lines with the mechanical pencil
It’s important to get an outline before starting in with the details because it makes it easier to fix mistakes as you go along.
Make sure your outline stays within the boundaries of the body! If you’re having trouble getting the shape right, you can sketch a few sample dogs on paper to practice first (I did this below).
Step 3: Start adding details with the mechanical pencil
Start small! Dogs have lots of little details like wrinkles and fur patterns that add up quickly, so if you make a mistake or change your mind about something
Each drawing will have a slightly different purpose. The pencil drawings are at a distance and you get the full body of the dog. The digital drawings are close ups and you can see more of the details.
The sketches show you how to draw a dog using simple shapes, lines, and shading. The tutorials use many layers and precise details. The videos are more like an instructional lesson on how to draw a dog with good tips on technique.

For this tutorial, I’m going to share with you my tips and techniques for drawing dogs.
1. First, you will want to sketch out the basic shapes of your dog. These include the head, body, legs and tail.
2. Next, you will want to start adding fur details to your dog. This can be done by simply scribbling on some long lines that run from the back of the dog to its belly and from its ears to its legs. You should also add a few curves to your dog as well in order to add some detail to it’s muzzle and snout area.
3. Draw in some eyes, nose and tongue (if you want) onto your dog sketch now before adding any further details.
4. Now that we have the basic shapes of our dog drawn in we can start doting on our dogs’ fur a bit more by making sure that all parts of the dogs fur is covered with lines of varying thicknesses depending on which part of the body they are drawn down.
6. When you are finished with this step you can go ahead and erase any stray pencil marks or left over guidelines that you may have added while drawing your dog earlier on in the tutorial so that what remains is a clean image free from
I really like drawing dogs. Dogs are my favorite animal, and I have several at home, so it’s a pleasure to draw them. I love their diversity: the shape of every nose, how paws differ from one breed to another, ears and tails…

This website teaches you how to draw dogs in different positions, with different facial expressions or accessories. You can learn how to draw a dog from scratch or how to improve your skills if you already know how to draw.

Drawing a dog is very playful and fun. Dogs are always the subject of great art works. If you want to draw a dog then first you need to know how to draw a circle or an ovals, a rectangle, and the lines. The next step is to learn how to draw legs and curves of your dog. It’s really easy if you follow the steps correctly.
Step 1: Start off with drawing a simple shape like an oval or a rectangle. This can be your starting point in your drawing of a dog.

Drawing a dog is easy, if you know how to draw dogs and if you follow the steps below. Note that this is how to draw a dog and not what a dog looks like. Every dog is different and no two dogs are exactly alike. Drawing a dog is about capturing its spirit. Dogs are happy creatures and their happiness is what makes us love them.
“How to Draw a Dog” presents an overview of the techniques used in drawing dogs, but it does not explain how to draw specific breeds, such as a bulldog or dalmatian. A drawing of a bulldog may be accomplished using this information, but the characteristics of that breed will not be captured accurately.
The point of drawing animals is to capture their essence, which means that the artist must have some sense of what makes the animal distinctive and then apply those characteristics in creating the piece. There is no right or wrong way to do this; it all depends on your ability as an artist. The following steps will help you develop your skills in drawing animals and dogs in particular.”
