Hi,


          Tim McConeghy, Lord of Latex. Let's play "I'll show you mine if
you show me your's". I'll start by telling you all how I make a little
chihuahua dog, then you folks post your favorite doggie designs.(one per
person)(be sure to title your post with your design name) Every month I'll
send in a new design for some other critter and soon we'll have a compendium
of knowledge for the archives. Then when a newbie asks how to make something
and we send that barage of "check the archives" responses it really will be
there.
          Here we go.

          Inflate a brown 260 leaving an 8 inch tail.
          Twist a 1 1/2 inch bubble for the nose.
          Twist two 3inch bubbles for the ears and locktwist them.
          Twist a 1 1/2 inch bubble and pinch twist it.
          Tuck this bubble between the ears, this is the top of the head.
          Twist a 1 inch neck.
          Twist two 1 inch legs and locktwist them.
          Twist a 1 inch body.
          Twist two more 1 inch legs and lock twist them.

          I know, it's just a mouse with long ears and pinch twist stuck
between them. Draw eyes on the pinch twist and the mouth on the first bubble
and it works great. Jazz it up by tulip twisting a little black nose on to
it.

          Remember you are the best twister in your socks.
