Fun Animal Friday Puppy Craft

Create a puppy inspired by November's Fun Animal Friday guest!

Activity best for children age 4 and up

Today we enjoyed a presentation by San Diego Humane Society and learned how to properly greet a dog. We met Moses the ambassador dog who was small, white, and very friendly. There are many different breeds of dogs that can look very different. Some can be tall with long ears and others are short with curly tails. Some can have a spotted coat and others have long, fluffy golden coats. Grab a die and follow the instructions below to see what your mixed up mutt will look like. Don’t forget to add a collar and name tag!

STEP 2
Roll your die for each feature to see what you’ll draw on your dog. If you roll the number that says “Your choice” you can choose your favorite or make up your own.
