I went with the Dog design for this month, I did make some variations and have
started a thread here if you'd like to see the other variations.

This is what we will be sending out in the balloon orders for March. There was a technical reason
that we changed to Pink and Rose, because we do not have any 350 Pale Blue in stock unfortunately.

Hoping to start posting the step by step tutorial later today.

Inflate the 350 leaving 6 fingers un-inflated. Make a 4/5 finger bubble followed by a 2 finger pinch twist.
Then make another 4/5 finger bubble, another 2 finger bubble where we will attach the ear later.
And then another 4/5 finger bubble and attach the knot of the balloon here.

Make a 3 finger pinch twist for the lower mouth section and then a soft 7 finger bubble for the muzzle.
Twist this 7 finger bubble into the pinch twist.
You then need a 2 finger bubble and discard the rest of the 350 balloon.

Inflate the other 350 leaving 5 fingers un-inflated and tie onto the first 350.
Cut off all the excess so that the joint is clean and balloon excess free.

Make a 2 finger pinch twist and then a 5/6 finger bubble for the first leg.
Twist another 5/6 finger bubble for the other front leg and twist the balloon into the 2 finger pinch twist.

For the body make a 5/6 finger bubble followed by a 2 finger pinch twist.
Then twist two more 5/6 finger bubbles for the rear legs and twist into the 2 finger pinch twist.

Deflate the rest of the balloon but do not cut off the excess yet.

Inflate the 260 and leave 4 fingers un-inflated.
Twist between a 5/6 finger fold twist, so approx a 10/12 finger bubble and attach to one of the head pinch twists.
Then make two 3 finger bubbles for the eyes, after the first 3 finger bubble twist a few times so there is a
little slack between the two 3 finger eye bubbles. Then attach to the other pinch twist on the head.

Make the other ear, a 5/6 finger fold twist, use the rest of this balloon for the tail, making
between a 6/8 finger bubble depending on how long you would like to have the tail.
Attach to the rear pinch twist, tie on and cut off all the excess balloon for a neat joint.

Make a 2 finger bubble for the nose and leave a lot of excess un-inflated balloon and tie
a knot into both ends. This will help the balloon grip around the ears when we attach.

Push the un-inflated part of the nose through the 7 finger muzzle fold twist and then over the
top of the bubbles for the eyes. This will pull the eyes below the centre section of the muzzle.

While doing this pull the nose up to the centre of the 7 finger fold twist.

Hold the nose/muzzle section against your body and pull the un-inflated balloons as tight as you can through the head section
of the Dog and tie one to each ear. Make sure the nose is at the top section of the 7 finger fold twist for the muzzle.
Try and pull the un-inflated through the head section as tight as you can as this
is what holds it all in place. And I think gives you a cuter look for the Dog.

Make a 2 finger bubble for the tongue of the Dog.

As I made my Dog in Blue I used a contrasting colour for the tongue. With Pink and Rose balloons supplied
you can use the extra from the Rose 260 for the tongue to contrast with the Pink for the head section.

Tie the tongue around the lower mouth pinch twist and push into place.
Add some artwork to finish the look of your Dog.

The nose on my Dog here (Pic 29) could do with being a little higher on the muzzle as in picture 30.

And there hopefully you have your Dog.

A couple more pictures of the finished Dog, I do have some variations that I will post shortly.

I did try the Dog with a Blue tongue so we only used the four balloons to make him.
Then tried black eyes just to see what he/she looked like, so a couple of variations on a theme.
