7 days?!......interestingly enough I am working on the same sort of project except its a Siberian Husky.....I also started a year ago & I'm currently the same age as you.....Woot!

anyway......what were you thinking of doing?....I've sort of been expieriementing with a couple diffrent ways. So far I've made one in clay so I can make a mold and cast it sometime. I also thought about building it like a mascot head but smaller. However right now I just bought a fiberglass dog head understructure from ebay...

But with the 7 day deadline I would say that your best bet would probably be to go with building it like a mascot head

Or.....go to a taxidermy shop and buy one of their animal forms (sturdy styrofoam like stuff) for like a coyote or a wolf...
