How long have you had it?
My kids adore dogs as much as I do, so I couldn’t leave out a heart-shaped craft featuring them.
Dogs come in many sizes and colors, but to our eyes, they are all the same.
They are special, and they are more than simply dogs to us; they become a part of our family.

Create a heart-shaped dog craft that resembles your dog using materials like construction paper, paper plates, and more!
The play pens and houses for your dogs would look great with this paper plate dog craft on display!
First, cut a heart shape out of the paper plate.
Cut tiny square pieces off of a piece of construction paper.
Your dog’s color will determine what color construction paper you use.
On a white piece of construction paper, cut two circles for the eyes.
You can also cut shapes for the dog’s ears, nose, mouth, and tongue.
You may now use glue to put everything together after cutting and prepping it.
Make more of these crafts if you have more than two dogs at home by repeating the process!

3. Puppy Popsicle Stick
Our dogs grow so quickly, and we miss the days when they were tiny.
Do you recall how your dog used to look when it was a puppy?
Relive those days as you work on this printable heart dog craft template idea.
Bring back those adorable puppies and turn them into popsicle stick crafts!
To get started, gather your popsicle sticks, paint, paintbrushes, marker, and hot glue.
Use hot glue to join popsicle stick pieces.
How many popsicle sticks you need depends on how large or small your dog was as a puppy.
Four popsicles are enough for the head of a little puppy, followed by three popsicle sticks for the body.
Connect the three popsicle sticks first, then all four. At the back of the head, place the three popsicle sticks vertically.
The popsicle sticks should be painted in your dog’s color. After it has dried, add more dog features with a marker.
Keep in mind that the popsicle sticks should be drawn on horizontally or they should be resting flat.
You can decorate your fridge with this extremely cute puppy popsicle stick as well!
You may put a small magnet to the back of it to make it stick to the refrigerator.
Alternatively, you could loop a thread through it and hang it on your dog’s house.
