The first stage: the creation of a figurine

  • Take a square of paper and put it face down. In advance, form the central folds, folding the workpiece in half.
  • Then, placing the square like a diamond, fold the opposite corners so that they touch exactly in the center.
  • One of the corners slightly bend back outwards while the second is hidden inside.
  • Fold the workpiece in half, and then bend onefrom the side up. It should be formed in the form of an upward corner. The same should be done on the reverse side, in advance turning the entire product. Thus, the head for the dog is formed, and with it the trunk.
  • Slightly push the head forward, then carefully iron all the folds. This action will give origami neatness and completeness.
