Eyes

You can use safety eyes, or embroidery.
If you choose embroidery, use black yarn and in a MR, crochet 1 sc and 1 slst. Tighten it and sew it on the face, each side of the snout. You can even pull a thread between the 2 eyes positions and tighten it to sculpt the face. To end with facial sculpting, I usually like to pinch the face a bit more by pulling thread between the eyes and the underside of the head. It’s easier to do it at the end, using stitches where the head and the neck of the puppy are sewn.

Legs

You can use the color you like, changing it to make spots
R1 : 6 sc in MR (6)
R2 : 6 inc (12)
R3: 12sc (12)
R4 : 3 dec, 6 sc (9)
R5-10 : 9 sc (9)
1 slst to end, cut the yarn hide it into the leg. Make four.

For the next step (the body), you’ll need to care about legs direction. This arrow will show the direction you may keep the legs facing. Always point the front side of the legs along the arrow direction.
