An adult female dog, displaying tan and black fur and visible mammary glands, is lying on its right side on a dirt and rough ground surface in Makurdi, Nigeria. Its head is oriented towards the lower right. Two puppies are visible: one light brown and grey puppy is positioned on the ground in the lower-left quadrant, resting. A second puppy, with brown and black fur and white facial markings, is seen in the upper-center, partially obscured by the adult's back, with its tongue slightly protruding. The surrounding environment consists of loose dirt, small fragments of debris, and a rough, light-colored earthen or concrete structure in the background, indicating a den or sheltered area.
