Coloring Tips

To capture the classic pug look, try using a light tan or “fawn” color for the body and a very dark gray or black for the ears and face. If kids are coloring the cozy room scene, encourage them to use a bright yellow for the moon to make the nighttime background pop. For the standing pup, using a soft peach color for the tongue can add a lively touch that makes the dog look energetic and ready to play.
