🐶 How to draw a dog
For a dog the head shape is decisive: a round head with two drooping floppy ears is almost always recognised correctly.
Step by step
- Draw a round head.
- Attach two long, oval floppy ears left and right – pointing downward.
- Add eyes, a round nose and a mouth with a small tongue.
- Add an elongated body and four short legs.
- A tail curving upward completes the silhouette.
Tips for high recognition rates
- Drooping ears are the clearest way to tell it apart from a cat.
- A visible snout (a slightly protruding nose) strengthens the dog impression.
Why these features matter is explained on the About the AI page: the neural network looks at the typical shape, not at clean lines.
Common mistake
Drawing upright pointed ears instead of floppy ones – that tips the sketch straight towards a cat or fox. Let the ears hang clearly downward.
