English, though it gets points for “style”, isn't exactly known for its coherence or adherence to rules, etc.
It gets quite confusing even for native speakers.
I was not joking on you, I just thought it was funny to jump on your “there dog” with a “where dog?”.
Keep up the good work, you write better than many a native speaker and FR can do nothing but help. As long as you are not learning to type in all caps!
