LÖVE

I've been trying to get this to work for so long, and I almost did but for some reason every time I run it only the picture shows up and not the text. When I put the code for the image in a comment, the text shows up, but when I un-comment the image code the text disappears and only the image shows. here's my code:

function love.draw()
love.graphics.print("Welcome to the game!", 0, 0)
end

local dog = love.graphics.newImage('dog.png')

function love.load()
love.graphics.setDefaultFilter('nearest', 'nearest')
end

function love.draw()
love.graphics.draw(dog, 300, 400)
end

You can't have two love.draw functions. The latter replaces the previous one. Put all your rendering code in the same function.

As ReFrezzed mentioned, put your drawable in single love.draw function.
Like here:

Thank you so much! The text and picture are both displaying now!
