Before you paint or draw anything, you should always begin with a sketch.
Sketch your dog on a piece of scratch drawing paper, laying down loose, flowing lines of the largest shapes first.Get the head and body down on paper in their most basic approximate shape.
The head is a trapezoid, the body is an oval, the neck is a square or rectangle.
Seeing the body in terms of more basic shapes will help you to get the initial forms on paper quickly and efficiently without overwhelming you with detail.
Don’t draw as though you’re outlining the form. Oftentimes, beginning artists draw the head and fill in the face before the body is in place, and then work piecemeal, drawing the neck, back, tail and legs as they come to each in turn.
Instead, try to imagine that you’re carving the form out of large, simple shapes that express the overall shapes and angles.
Warm Regards
