About This Dog In Doghouse Coloring Page

This Dog In Doghouse coloring page is a joyful little scene that invites imagination and gentle storytelling. Picture the sleepy puppy tucked safely inside the doghouse, and encourage kids to think about cozy colors, patterns, and weather. Coloring the roof, walls, grass, and flowers gives children many chances to practice color matching and to explore contrast, such as pairing a bright roof with a pale wall. For the classroom, try a coloring center with crayons and colored pencils, then display finished sheets on a bulletin board as a neighborhood of doghouses. At home, this printable is perfect for a rainy afternoon; use it as a prompt to write a short story about the puppy or to create a name tag for the dog. For a creative extension, have kids cut out the house to make a pop up scene, or pair the page with a book about pets to spark conversation. This page is printable and free, and it is a simple way to blend art, language, and imaginative play.

Coloring Tips & Techniques

Try coloring the dog a warm tan or brown, and add a darker brown for the ears and tail to show texture. Use red or blue for the doghouse roof and a softer color for the walls, and add green for the grass and bright colors for the flowers to make the scene pop. Shade lightly along the edges of the dog and doghouse to give a cozy, three dimensional feel, and use short strokes to show fur.
