For the first few steps, don't press down too hard with your pencil. Use light, smooth strokes to begin.

Step 1: Draw a circle near the top of the page as a guide for the husky puppy's body. First draw four small marks to indicate the height and width of the circle, then connect the marks using curved lines. Sketch lightly at first so that it's easy to erase if you make a mistake. But the circle doesn't have to be perfect. It's just a guide. If you do want to draw a perfect circle, trace the outer rim of a cup, a lid or any other object with a circular edge.

Step 2: Draw a curved horizontal line that's slightly tilted across the head. This construction line helps to give the head a tilted orientation and will help you place the husky puppy's facial features later. Add a slightly tilted vertical line at the top for another construction line.

Step 3: Draw a small circle on the lower half of the head as a guide for the puppy dog's muzzle. Pay attention to the size of this circle. It should fit between the construction line and the lower edge of the head.

Step 4: Draw two triangle-like shapes on the head as guides for the husky puppy's ears. The sides of these shapes should curve more than a triangle.

Step 5: Draw a circle-like shape under the head as a guide for the top half of the husky's body. First draw a small mark below the the head, then connect the mark to the sides of the head using curved lines.
