Remove the yarn. Row 25: Place a marker in the last sc. For the next section, work in rows. We'll be crocheting the tab that hangs below the trunk now.
R26: Skip 37 stitches. Rejoin the yarn and work 8 sc (8)
R27: Ch 1, turn, 1 sc in each of the 27 sc (8)
R28: Ch 1, turn, one dec, four sc, one dec (6)
R29: Ch 1, turn, one dec, two sc, one dec (4)
R30: Ch 1, turn, dec 2 (2)
Close the loop.
We have now created a tab that is lower than the trunk.
Insert safety eyes between Rounds 16 and 17.
Legs:
To make the legs, we will divide the body into leg chains. Each leg chain is made up of 6 chains, and we will make 4 leg chains (A-D) in total.
Leg Chain A: Join to one end of the last sc of R25 (see pic below), chain 6, count 21 sc, join with sl st to this end.
Leg Chain B: Continuing from Leg Chain A, Ch 6. Sl stitch to the last stitch of Row 30 of the tab.
Leg Chain C: Continuing from Leg Chain B (the first end is in the last stitch of Row 30), chain 6, then count 15 sc from the beginning of the base of the tab of R25 and join with sl st.
Leg Chain D: Continuing from Leg Chain C, chain 6 and sl stitch to the last stitch of R25 (where your stitch marker is). Don't cut the yarn.
We'll now work on each individual leg, crocheting around the body and the leg chains we just made.
Leg A:
Starting with the last stitch of Row 25 (where the marker was, i.e. no need to cut the yarn from before, just keep working):
R1: 21 stitches (body), 6 stitches (leg chain A) (27)
R2: 1 single crochet in each sc (27)
R3: 5 stitches, 1 dec, 12 stitches, 1 dec, 6 stitches (25)

Finish by fastening off and weaving in the ends.

Firmly stuff the body and trunk. Attach the crocheted belly piece to the edges of the four leg chains to close the belly.
The belly piece should fit perfectly because it has 24 stitches and the leg chains each have 6 chains (four leg chains x 6 chains = 24 stitches).
