As a dog person I believe we need more pet-related extruder indicators.

This one is a dog chasing his own tail! A particularly impressive feat with a 0.8mm nozzle — see https://youtube.com/shorts/WqA5RLMZfmo?feature=share !

If printed in orange, I know, it looks more like a fox — but still fun to watch.

The 3mf file includes color changes for multi-color prints. No MMU required, just swap filament as prompted.

Stack two 8x3 mm magnets on top of each other and super-glue them to the back of the model to mount it to the extruder.
