Stuff well. Place nose between R11 and R12 in the middle of the face. Add eyes one row above the nose (between R10 and R11). The eyes look cuter if they are ~3 sts away from the nose on each side. Try the distance that looks best to you and once you are happy with it, fix them in place. See pictures for reference. |

Assembly
- Attach unstuffed legs to the bottom of the puppy body. You can place them as you wish. You can see how I prefer to place them in the left image. Tip, use pins to see how they look like before you attach them in.
- Attach the ears to each side closer to the front than the back of the body. I place mine on R4.
- Attach the tail at back and bottom of the body (R15)
- If you want a tongue, cut some pink or red felt and glue it one row below the nose
