About this puzzle

A easy 15x15 grid in the dog theme, Dog Bone 15x15 Nonogram hides a recognisable picture once the logic clicks. About 34% of the grid is shaded — 77 filled cells out of 225 — which makes for a fairly balanced board. The image is symmetric both left-to-right and top-to-bottom, so progress on one quarter mirrors across the whole board.

The biggest single run here is 13 cells long — fill that first and the surrounding lines fall into place faster. Budget about 2 minutes for a relaxed solve.

How to solve this nonogram

At this size, work the longest clues first, then use the cells they force to crack the shorter lines around them. With balanced coverage, alternate between filling forced cells and ruling out empties to keep both kinds of clue moving. Spot the symmetry early and you can copy solved sections to the mirrored side instead of re-deriving them. Turn Challenge mode on for instant feedback on mistakes, or leave it off for a calmer solve.
