This image presents an outdoor scene in Barakin Akawo, Nigeria, featuring a black-furred dog interacting with one human. The dog, primarily black with a white patch on its chest and white fur covering its front left paw and lower leg, stands on its hind legs. Its brown eyes are directed forward. A red fabric is tied around its neck. Its left front paw rests on a dark-skinned human hand, the forearm of which is clad in a grey long-sleeved garment. The ground consists of uneven, reddish-brown dirt with scattered small stones and debris. In the background, a large, light-colored woven sack is visible on the left, and a single black slide sandal lies on the ground to the left of the dog's head. A section of a light brown brick wall is partially visible in the upper right background.
