Each page features a dog to color and the breed’s name in a white fill font to color in. The bubble letters on each page are perfect for rainbow writing, a learning technique where a child traces the same word multiple times in different colors. Or, of course, older children and adults can fill them in with doodles and decorations. If there’s a dog lover in your family, be sure to check out this free printable dog breed bingo.

How to print and use coloring pages
Using these coloring pages is straightforward - print them off, color, and enjoy! I recommend printing coloring pages on 32 lb bright white paper for the best coloring experience. Remember those yellow, rough coloring pages in coloring books as a child? They’re not that fun to color on. This 32 lb paper is smooth and bright for vibrant colors and easy coloring. Our favorite markers for children’s coloring are Crayola Supertips. They’re affordable and fun for both adults and children. They’re fairly washable, available in a wide variety of colors, and you can even use them for hand lettering practice! My daughter’s favorite crayons are Honeysticks natural beeswax crayons. The colors palette is limited, but the colors are rich and creamy. These crayons are made from pure beeswax with food grade colorants. They’re made in New Zealand so you don’t have to worry about random toxins and contaminates. (Remember all that news a couple of years ago about toxic crayons?)
