Step 15: Use the main circle as a guide to draw the rest of the golden retriever's head. As you darken the top part of the head, make the middle section dip down a bit. Make the left side of the face closer to the eye than the initial edge of the circle. Add a couple more curved lines made up of quick, short strokes on the lower right side of the mouth to complete the head.
Step 16: Use the second line from the left under the body as a guide to draw the front leg that's on this side. Follow the path of the guide and lightly sketch the shape of the leg around it. When you get the shape of the golden retriever's leg right, darken the lines.
Use a couple of small curved lines at the tip of the foot to separate the dog's individual toes. Curve the bottom of the leg forward to create the shape of the foot. Don't make the foot too big. Use a series of quick, short strokes along the right edge of the leg for the long fur found there. Add a few strokes on the base of the leg on the upper, left side.
Step 17: Use the line on the far left side as a guide to draw the golden retriever's other front leg the same way. Follow the basic path of the guide as you draw the shape of the leg around it. Curve the bottom part forward to create the foot and add the toes using short, curved lines. Use a series of quick, short strokes along the right edge of the leg for fur.
Step 18: Use the line on the far right side as a guide to draw the first hind leg. The top part of this leg is so wide, that it actually starts closer to the guide on the left. Draw a curved line made up of quick, short strokes for the top of the leg and a straight line at the bottom. Add the golden retriever's toes at the bottom using curved lines, then add more quick, short strokes near the top.
Step 19: Use the last line under the body as a guide to draw the dog's other hind leg the same way. Use quick, short strokes at the top and curved lines for the toes at the bottom. The top part of this leg will be hidden by the first hind leg, so don't worry about drawing it.
