Feigning perception.
I am pretty sure that this guy ( girl? who knows! ) has long forgotten he has a tail, as he probably has also long forgotten he is a dog. I loved that he smiled at me as though he could actually see me. Feigning perception. Imagine living your life like that - where you heard someone come up to you, ask you a question and you do have the sense of sight, but you just have to face the direction of the voice and smile. I bet It-looking-hippies do it all the time.
Unfortunately, the woman who was with this dog had to do the exact same with me - nod and smile. She had no idea what I was saying because she didn't speak a lick of English. Or at least that is what I assume, as when I asked her do you speak English she just nodded and smiled. Living in San Francisco, America, I would imagine you'd at least learn that phrase. I feel just as silly not knowing a lick of Spanish and living in America. I spelled La Jolla 'La Hoya' yesterday. Live and learn, I suppose.
