The image shows a young boy in a red jacket and gray pants standing on top of a wooden dog house in a fenced-in area with trees and bushes in the background. The boy is reaching up to pet a large brown and white dog that is standing on the edge of the dog house. The dog is looking up at the boy with its head tilted upwards and its mouth open, as if it is about to bark. There is a chain around its neck and the boy's hand is extended towards the dog. The ground is covered in fallen leaves and there is a wooden fence surrounding the area.
