After sewing the muzzle to the head, make small indentations in the eye area. Around the eyes, create two gray spots, which I felted with dark gray wool. Then glue the eyes and embroider white stitches around the gray spots. Also embroider the ears with white threads, and inside the ears, they are tinted with gray color.
The nose and paws were molded from polymer clay, boiled in a bowl in boiling water for about 5 minutes, and after cooling, coated with clear varnish.
The paws and nose were glued using a hot glue gun to the legs. The ears were sewn to the head, and the tail to the lower part of the body.
