This dog-counting puzzle is trickier than it first appears. The image suggests there may be only 10 dogs, but several smaller puppies are hidden between the larger golden retrievers.
Count the dogs carefully from top to bottom:
Top row: 1 dog
Second row: 3 dogs
Third row: 4 dogs
Fourth row: 5 dogs
Hidden puppies between the larger dogs: 3 dogs
Bottom row: 4 puppies
1 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 3 + 4 = 20
The correct answer is 20 dogs.
Many people miss the three tiny puppies tucked between the larger dogs or overlook some of the puppies sitting along the bottom.
