Learn how to draw a pug by starting with simple shapes and gradually adding details, facial features, and clean outlines.

Step 1:

Mark the picture’s width and height, draw two ovals for the pug’s head and body, and add a center line on its head.

Tip: Keep your lines light so you can easily erase later.

Step 2:

Draw the pug’s body and neck, then add a smooth guideline for its tail.

Tip: Use rounded shapes to capture the pug’s chunky body.

Step 3:

Add guidelines to show where the pug’s legs, eyes, ears, and nose will go.

Tip: Guidelines help keep all features aligned correctly.

Step 4:

Sketch the pug’s legs, feet, nose, and ears.

Tip: Focus on simple outlines before adding details.

Step 5:

Draw the pug’s eyes, tail, nose, and toes, and add lines to define its ears and mouth.

Tip: Soft curves work best for the pug’s facial features.

Step 6:

Add the pug’s claws and carefully refine the whole figure with more details.

Tip: Refine slowly to keep the drawing neat and balanced.

Step 7:

Outline the pug with thick and thin dark lines, add more details and the ground, then erase all the guidelines.

Tip: Thicker outer lines and thinner inner lines give a clean, finished look.
