Are you ready to test your observation skills and logical thinking? The image above is more than just a drawing of a dog—it contains a hidden mystery waiting to be solved. The challenge is simple yet tricky: Find the owner of the dog.
At first glance, it might seem like there’s no owner in the picture at all. But don’t be too quick to give up! This puzzle is designed to test your ability to see beyond the obvious. Look closely, focus on the details, and see if you can uncover the hidden surprise.
Do you think you have what it takes to solve it? Let’s dive in and explore the challenge step by step.
Common Mistakes People Make

Before we reveal the solution, let’s talk about some of the most common mistakes people make when trying to solve this puzzle.
- Only Looking at the Dog’s Face
- Most people focus solely on the dog and don’t think to analyze the rest of the image. The key to solving this puzzle isn’t just in what you see immediately but in how you perceive the entire picture.
- Ignoring the Artistic Style
- This type of puzzle is often created using illusion art, where a second image is hidden within the main drawing. Many people assume that the only thing visible is the dog, failing to realize that another perspective might reveal more information.
- Not Rotating the Image
- This is the biggest mistake! The image isn’t meant to be viewed in just one direction. Most people forget to rotate it, which is where the real answer is hidden.
Now that you know what to watch out for, let’s go through the step-by-step process of solving the puzzle.

Step-by-Step Guide to Finding the Dog’s Owner
To uncover the hidden owner, follow these steps:
Step 1: Observe the Entire Image
Instead of just looking at the dog’s face, take a moment to study the full picture. Notice the details in the shading and line work. Some parts may seem unusual or oddly placed—this is a clue that the image contains more than meets the eye.
Step 2: Look for Unusual Shapes
Pay close attention to areas where the lines seem to form something more than just fur and facial features. Sometimes, shading and shadows are intentionally used to create multiple images within one drawing.
Step 3: Rotate the Image
Here’s the crucial step—turn the image upside down.
Once you do, you’ll no longer see just a dog. Instead, a new image will appear—the face of a man, the true owner of the dog.
This optical illusion plays with perception, and unless you think to change your perspective, you might never notice it.

Why This Puzzle Is So Fascinating
This type of visual illusion is a perfect example of how our brain processes images. Our mind is naturally drawn to the most prominent figure—in this case, the dog. However, by shifting perspective, we can uncover hidden layers of information.
This puzzle teaches an important lesson: Sometimes, the answer is right in front of us, but we need to change the way we look at things to see it.

Old Man Sells Shabby Suitcase, Everyone Ignores Him except Lame Boy Who Agrees to Buy It — Story of the Day

A boy goes to the flea market to buy old music tapes, but he takes pity on an elderly man selling an old suitcase, and that act of kindness changes his life.
Martin Farmer’s life wasn’t easy and it contained few pleasures. He was seventeen years old, but he was already carrying a heavy load of responsibility. His mother was ill, and his father had passed away two years before, leaving him as the man of the house.
Shortly after that, a motorbike accident had left Martin with severe injuries to his left leg, which ended his brilliant football career, and he had been counting on football to pay his way through college…

Money was short so Martin worked after school every day and all day Saturdays to make ends meet and help pay for his mom’s medication. Once in a while he took $5 out of his savings and went to the local flea market to look for old music tapes from the 80s and the 90s.
Those monthly trips to the flea market were his only pleasure — his only hobby. That Sunday, Martin was recovering from a particularly hard week. He had worked hard, but his mother’s medical bills had come in the mail.
His week’s paycheck wasn’t enough to keep the wolves at bay forever, Martin knew that. He and his mother had a heated argument on Saturday night. He wanted to quit school and work full time, but his mother disagreed.
This morning he got up early, made her breakfast, and then headed out for the flea market. At least for a couple of hours, he’d stop thinking about his problems.
It was a beautiful morning so the fair was full of people browsing through the trash and treasures of other people’s lives, and Martin headed for one particular vendor he knew well.

He was standing by the man’s table, going through a treasure trove of old tapes when an old man arrived and set up a pile of old bags and suitcases next door. The man immediately started advertising his wares:
“Suitcases, bags, and briefcases!” he cried in his old cracked voice, “Five dollars apiece, best bargain of your life!”
A woman passing by stopped, looked, and sniffed. “Old junk is what you’ve got! There’s so much mildew on that suitcase it will probably fall apart!”
“Go on, lady!” the old man wheeled. “Help an old man out! I’m clearing out my old treasures and I can sure use the money! Things are tight…”
Another man walked past and nudged a briefcase with his foot. “Old man, I wouldn’t even give a dollar for this piece of trash! You’re not going to sell anything!”
Miracles are found where and when we least expect them.
The old man shook his head. “You’re wrong. The right person will come along because this here is a suitcase full of hope,” he said. “Cause it looks like a suitcase to you, but I promise you, it’s a dream come true!”

Martin smiled. He turned to the man and said, “I could use a lot of hope right about now! How much for the dream come true?”
“Young man,” the old man said smiling happily. “This here marvel is 100% genuine leather, made in the 1930s, and it can be yours for only $5!”
Smiling, Martin fished in his pocket for his single $5 note and handed it to the man. “Here you go,” he said.
The man was smiling hugely, and he grabbed Martin’s hand. “You’re a kind boy,” he said. “And you deserve what you’re getting!”
Martin laughed, picked up the old suitcase which was a lot heavier than he’d imagined, and waved a regretful goodbye to the music man. “Next time!” he promised and headed home for lunch.

When he arrived home, his mother complained about the suitcase right away. “Martin! Did you have to buy junk? We have enough of that! Put it in the garage or it will fill the house with dust!”
Martin obediently carried the suitcase into the garage. He was about to place it on top of an old table when he once again noticed how heavy it was. He opened the suitcase and was surprised to see that it was filled with packages wrapped in newspaper.
Curious, he ripped the newspaper and found a wad of $20 bills! Quickly Martin unwrapped the other packages. It was all money! Thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of dollars!
Martin screamed for his mother and she came running. She was speechless at the sight of the piles of money. She didn’t complain about the dust…

That night, Martin and his mom counted and recounted the money. There was $300,000! “There’s enough for the medical bills, and the medication…” said Martin.
“Oh, and for college,” said Martin’s mom. “And maybe then we pay off the mortgage…”
“But mom,” Martin said softly. “It’s not our money. The man sold me this suitcase for five dollars and he looked very poor. I’m sure he didn’t know about the money.”
Mrs. Farmer carefully put all the money back in the old suitcase. “In that case, you have to find him, Martin,” she said. “And give it all back to him.

Over the next three weeks, Martin haunted the street markets and flea markets looking for the old man, but he was nowhere to be found. Then one day he saw him at a bus stop, carrying another old suitcase.
“Wait!” Martin cried. “Listen, do you remember me? You sold me an old suitcase? I have to give it back to you!”
“Give it back?” asked the old man. “I don’t want it back!”
“Please, you don’t understand,” Martin said. “The suitcase was full of money, your money!”

The old man started laughing. “I know THAT!” he said. “Do you remember what I told you? The suitcase was full of hope and dreams come true. That’s what it’s for. Use it well.”
The old man turned and started to walk away, but Martin ran after him. “But I thought you were poor!”
The man smiled. “No, son. I’m a man who spent his entire life making money and now I find I have more than anyone should have. So I give it to those who are kind enough to help those in need. And that’s you!”
Martin went home and told his mother the old man’s story. They decided to use the money to help her get well and to pay for his college, and from that day on, they included the Suitcase Man in their prayers.
What can we learn from this story?
- Miracles are found where and when we least expect them. Martin and his mother were at the end of their rope when they found the money in the suitcase.
- Acts of kindness are always rewarded. Martin spent his precious $5 to help a man he thought was poorer than he was and received a gift that made his dreams come true.
