Free PDF coloring page to print or download.

A dog made entirely of twisted balloons, tubes joined by pinched knots, the nozzle still visible at the tip of the snout. It sits somewhere between an animal and a shape puzzle, and children who like things clean rather than furry choose it every time. One solid color is the honest version, and a white highlight left on each tube makes the balloon dog drawing look inflated. The dog kennel is the other object in the set.

Simple drawing of a balloon dog, its body and legs made of tubes joined at pinched knots

A dog twisted out of balloons, all tubes and knots.
