Origami Scottie Dog or Origami Scottish Terrier
This is a really cute origami scottie dog or origami scottish terrier. It was featured as the Origami of the Day for Feb 20, 2009 in the Origami Page a Day Calendar. I first saw someone folding this on YouTube. This origami scottie dog was designed by Robert E. Neale, according to the calendar.
