How to Draw a Dog Collar
Draw a dog collar in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the opening.
Step 1: The opening
A little above the middle of your paper draw a big wide oval lying on its side.
Tip A collar is like a short fat tube, so you see the hole on top.
Step 2: The band
Under the oval draw a big U, end to end. Inside the oval draw a rainbow from edge to edge.
Tip The rainbow inside is the back of the band, so your collar looks like a ring, not a drum.
Step 3: The buckle
In the middle of the band draw a rounded square as tall as the band, and a smaller one inside.
Step 4: Strap end and pin
Left of the buckle draw a strap end. From the buckle draw a pin along it, stopping near the tip.
Tip The pin pokes through a hole to hold the collar shut.
Step 5: Holes
Draw a little round hole on the strap end, and 3 more along the band right of the buckle.
Step 6: Loop and tag
Under the buckle draw a tiny ring. Hang a round tag from it, about as big as a coin.
Step 7: A heart
On the tag draw a little heart, 2 bumps on top meeting in a point at the bottom.
Step 8: Sparkles
Draw a sparkle above the collar on the left, one on the right, and a small one low right.
Step 9: Gold buckle and tag
Go over your lines, then colour the buckle frame, the ring and the tag yellow, leaving the heart white.
Step 10: Red band
Colour the band red, around the gold buckle and inside it too. Leave the opening and the holes white.
Step 11: Red heart, yellow sparkles
Colour the heart red and the sparkles yellow. The collar is ready for a good dog!
