Amigurumi version:

I just need to make at least one of these adorable puppies this summer! The breed is the Australian Shepherd

Kangal is a dog breed from Turkey. It's a large powerful dog used as a guardian against predators. There are some many good pictures online to use as a reference. Crocheting a puppy would be a challenge to make in tan.  I think that I should give it a try before summer ends. That's my challenge. I'll see how long this takes to start and finish. --ready-set-go! (written 7/20/2013)
