It feeks like it should be flipped around. The bird dog should be on the left extending to the back cover.
Would make sense, but would also look a little weird. In the West we're used to reading left-to-right, so the eye naturally moves that way, which lends movement to the boy running to the dog. Flip it, and the natural assumption is that the
dog is moving towards the
boy, even with the position of the boy's legs. You could have the boy mid-leap, right-to-left, which would work, but then we're just changing the whole scene.
Also, woo! Must be new info coming for it to be on the cover.
