This reminds me of the video I saw of Koko the gorilla and her pet kitten. It showed Koko knuckle walking over to the kitty’s bowl with a bag of cat food grasped under one hairy arm. The kitten did that thing cats do - thread between your striding legs in a way that almost makes you fall on your face. I seriously believed that the cat couldn’t tell the difference between the gorilla and the humans - we all look the same to them???? So with this dog - is he thinking this is a red haired short human who works out alot? I mean, it’s a LITTLE embarrassing to think that to our pets, we are indistinguishable from exotic animals we keep in zoos - and yet...some irony remains.

Yes, I remember hearing about Koko and her kitten. She was the gorilla that could sign, right? I think the cat died and she got depressed so they had to get her another one.
