Who doesn't love a paper puppy? This little dog is one of those models that instantly registers as 'animal' the second you finish the last fold — perky ears, a pointed snout, and a stubby body that somehow looks ready to wag its tail. It's a perfect step up once you've got the basic folds down and want something with a bit more personality.

We'll build it in ten photo-guided steps from a single square sheet, mixing turn-arounds, inside folds, and one satisfying open-fold. Take it slow at the tricky steps and you'll end up with a pup you'll be proud to set on your shelf.
