Why Kids Love This Farm Puppy

The puppy sits nicely, tilts its head a little and wags its short tail. Behind it stands a wooden barn with a big cross-braced door, with a fence stretching out on both sides. The barn boards are wide stripes that are easy to fill in. The pup itself is made of big, round shapes.

All About Puppies

Puppies are born blind and deaf and open their eyes after about two weeks. Usually several brothers and sisters arrive together. Dogs can smell thousands of times better than people. On a farm, dogs are big helpers: they guard the yard, and herding dogs help keep sheep or cows together. Dogs were also the very first pets people ever had.

Fun Ideas for Your Finished Puppy

Pick a name for the farm puppy together and write it over the barn door. Or build a little cardboard doghouse that the cut-out picture fits inside.

Color Ideas for the Farm Puppy

Farm dogs come in all sorts of coat colors.

🤎 Golden brown
Warm tan with darker ears looks extra cuddly.
⚫ Black and white
Like a herding dog: black back, white chest and paws.
🟥 Red barn
Paint the barn bright red with white trim on the door.
💙 Blue pup
A fantasy puppy in light blue with yellow ears.
💡 Coloring Tip: Color the barn last and leave a thin light edge around the puppy so it pops off the background.
