25 Pawsome Origami Dogs that You Mutt See
We've posted about origami dogs previously. Since then we've come across a ton of other fantastic paper dogs that also deserve to be highlighted. We'll start out this post with this beautiful looking dog folded from a sheet of mulberry paper.

Each of these is folded from different kinds of paper with different kinds of paint.
