Panel 1: Fluff Pup, a brown puppy with a yellow crown and fuzzy ears, faces a gray speed bag that hangs from the ceiling. She has a look of determination on her face and has her front paws in a pair of red boxing gloves. Her paws are up in preparation to punch. Panel 2: Fluff Pup has her eyes tightly shut as she quickly and furiously pummels the speed bag, which shakes back and forth as she punches. Her crown bounces on her head as she punches! Panel 3: The speed bag has suddenly burst open with its most recent swing. Fluff Pup, with a giant exclamation point and her eyes giant, is immensely surprised to find piles of CANDY falling out of the busted speed bag. Lollipops, chocolate bars, gumballs and more tumble to the ground! Panel 4: The deflated speed bag has stopped swinging. Fluff Pup rubs the back of her head in confusion. She watches Pug Pup, a pug puppy with a purple cape and a red-and-gold crown and Corgi Pup, a corgi puppy with a multi-colored tiara, stuff and munch the fallen candy into their happy mouths. They have appeared suddenly out of nowhere because they love candy!

Speed Bag Surprise

I used to have a speed bag once too. It got deflated but not in the same way as what happens to Fluff Pup!
 

Egg-tastic Coloring Pages!

Posted on April 16, 2025 by Lindsay

Easter is almost here! So, it makes perfect sense to…dress Corgi Pup as an Easter Egg? Of course, since it’s for one of this month’s coloring pages! Corgi Pup doesn’t have to worry though, she’s not the only one in costume: Pug Pup has found a bunny-riffic costume to go along with the theme!

Corgi Pup looks festive, even if she looks annoyed!

For this month’s other egg themed coloring page, I drew Scruffy Pup doing a daring balancing act. She’s got so many Easter Eggs on her head! Maybe it’s because she already filled two baskets? Either way, it’s very impressive to TeaCup Pup!

TeaCup Pup doesn’t know that there was a fifth egg being balanced…

For this month’s timelapse, take a peek at the costume goodness that went into drawing Pug Pup and Corgi Pup in their Easter outfits! Maybe you can spot where I decided they needed their ears to be poking out of the costumes?…Don’t forget to check out the Coloring Pages section for these and stacks more coloring pages!

Garden Goals for Coloring!

Posted on March 21, 2025 by Lindsay

Winter has felt like it’s been too long where I live, with temperatures being cold and then a random day of spring-ish weather. Since the Princess Pups get the weather that I draw for them, this month’s coloring pages have our puppy friends enjoying nice, springlike outside weather in gardening environments!

The first coloring page has Pug Pup and Corgi Pup enjoying a swarm of butterflies that are fluttering around a giant shrub! Maybe one of them will land on Pug Pup or Corgi Pup?

Butterflies big and small are hovering around Pug Pup and Corgi Pup!

For the second coloring page, I wanted to have Fluff Pup working on some of her gardening by repotting some flowers. Scruffy Pup wants to help! But she’s not quite used to the process for transferring flowers, it seems…

Scruffy Pup doesn’t have as much experience gardening as Fluff Pup

For this month’s timelapse, you can see how much I nudged around Fluff Pup (and her head!) to make sure she fit on the page well with Scruffy Pup! Be sure to check the Coloring Pages section for these new coloring pages and stacks of others to color while enjoying nice spring weather!

Float into Valentine Coloring Pages!

Posted on February 12, 2025 by Lindsay

I’m a fan of having the Princess Pups decked out for Valentines, sometimes in comics and sometimes as actual printable Valentines with cheesy phrases (go on, click that link and print some free Valentines!). While I don’t have more printable Valentines this year, I do have some printable coloring pages with fun heart-shaped goodness to them! First is TeaCup Pup visiting that Grumpy Goose (who made another appearance recently in the comic) to present him with a Valentine pretzel! The Grumpy Goose appears to have another emotion now because he’s blushing!

Can you turn down a Valentine made from a delightful soft-baked pretzel? I know I can’t.

This month’s second coloring page has Scruffy Pup and Corgi Pup enjoying some fun heart-shaped balloons! The balloons seem to be pretty sturdy and can carry the pups away, which Scruffy Pup doesn’t seem to mind. Corgi Pup might not have been expecting this though.

How did Corgi Pup end up wrapped up instead of holding balloons anyway?…

I did a lot of nudging and tweaking on this last page, which makes for an interesting timelapse that you can view below! (Always keep your balloons on a separate layer from any puppies, it just makes the drawing easier.) If you want more coloring pages, including past Valentine ones, remember to scoot over to the Coloring Pages section to snag ’em!

Cold Weather Coloring!

Posted on January 19, 2025 by Lindsay

It’s January of a new year, dang! While I was saving some various art files on my computer the other day, I accidentally put ‘2024’ in the file name instead of ‘2025’. If you’re old enough to remember writing checks, I used to do it then too! Either way, besides being a new year it has also been wintery where I live. So this month’s coloring pages have a cold weather theme, one you can enjoy without being outside in the cold!

The first coloring page has Fluff Pup reaching for her crochet hook to make a cozy scarf for Corgi Pup! Corgi Pup is sitting with such contained delight at this long scarf that’s wrapping around her. Is Fluff Pup finished with it or is she going to crochet it to be even longer?…

Fluff Pup has made quite a long scarf, which makes Corgi Pup so happy!

This month’s second coloring page has the rest of the pups out ice skating! Well, sorta. TeaCup Pup is having trouble keeping her balance on her ice skates. Scruffy Pup seems to be doing quite well gliding by on just her back legs while posing. Pug Pup is…eating ice cream in the background?!

TeaCup Pup isn’t sure how well her and ice skating will work out.

This month’s timelapse features Fluff Pup and Corgi Pup with that long crocheted scarf! I did some nudging to get the height I wanted between Corgi Pup and the tall stool that Fluff Pup sits on (see if you can spot it, it goes by fast!). Don’t forget to grab these coloring pages and stacks of others from the Coloring Pages section of the site!
