Puppy Curled Up With A Teddy Bear Coloring Page

A puppy has curled into a soft ring around a stuffed toy, its chin resting on top of it and its eyes closed. The toy is drawn as a plush rounded body with one round button eye showing near the puppy's cheek. Behind them, a fan of large petaled flowers and a small crest of scrollwork arches up like a headboard, and the whole group sits in a circle of white.

Fur here is drawn in long soft strokes that curve with the body, and the flowers are open and simple, so the page has an easy rhythm to it despite the detail.

Try keeping the flowers pale and the animal warm. The circular composition already pulls the eye inward, and a soft background reinforces that rather than fighting it.

Dogs sleep against an object for the same reason they sleep against each other. Contact on one side means one fewer direction to stay alert to, and it lowers the resting heart rate measurably.
