At first glance, this dog-counting puzzle looks pretty straightforward. Several large Newfoundland dogs are sitting or lying in plain sight, but a few smaller faces are tucked between them.
The easiest way to solve it is to scan the image from left to right and count every separate dog, including the ones whose bodies are mostly hidden.
There is one large dog on the left, several black dogs grouped closely in the middle, one large brown dog on the right, a large black dog lying in front, and a small hidden dog peeking out near the bottom-right corner.
Those partially hidden faces are what make the puzzle easy to underestimate.
Answer: There are 8 dogs in the picture.
