A fluffy, gray terrier mix gazes upwards with dark, soulful eyes. Its wet nose and scruffy whiskers are prominently featured. The dog's paw rests gently in a fair-skinned human hand, suggesting a connection between the two. The background shows neutral-toned floor tiles and a white wall, creating a clean and simple backdrop for the subject. The image is well-lit, emphasizing the texture of the dog's fur and the details in its face.
