How to draw a border collie
GRID STEP. You can print out the base construction lines and start drawing on tracing paper or you can draw the grid layout yourself using the following steps.
1) Draw a rectangle that will define the conditional proportions and boundaries of the chosen drawing. 2) From the middle of the rectangle, draw one vertical and one horizontal line equally dividing the shape. 3) Draw another horizontal line equally dividing the upper half of the rectangle. Similarly, draw a horizontal line equally dividing the bottom half of the rectangle. 4) Draw a vertical line equally dividing the left half of the rectangle. Similarly, draw a vertical line equally dividing the right half of the rectangle.

STEP 1. Mark off the width and height of the picture. Draw two ovals for the head and the body of the Border collie. Draw a line, which will act as the center of its head.
STEP 2. Draw the shape of the collie’s body. Add a smooth guideline for its tail.
STEP 3. Define with guidelines the places for the legs, eyes and jaws.
STEP 4. Sketch the legs and snout of the Border collie.
STEP 5. Add toes. Draw the shape of the tail. Outline the ears. Finish the shape of the snout.
STEP 6. Detail the ears, legs, and belly. Draw the eyes and nose.
STEP 7. Work on the whole figure, paying special attention to detail.
STEP 8. Contour the border collie, trying to vary the thickness and Darkness of the line. Add more detail and add the ground. Erase all guidelines.
