Translated…
A medium-sized, short white coat, with a few of the “black patches” all over its back.
The first time I saw him, he was, lying, with his back on the concrete, his four legs, up in mid-air, moving up and down, swaying left and right. Then, he’d turned his body, to the right, then the left, worked hard, to find, a position, that would be easier, for him, to get back up again, but couldn’t, so he was, defeated, and he’d even, started, panting too.
And, just so happened, that I saw on the news, of a turtle that got flipped on its back and couldn’t flip back over again at the zoo, it’d had the help of its companions, to help it get back on its stomach again, all of a sudden, it’d made me believe, that this dog, was that turtle that couldn’t flip back over again. Is it, a malfunction of its body? The woman exercising beside it seemed like its owner, so why, did she not see him, and help him, flip back over again!
Later on, I’d finally saw him, agile, jumped back up again, left the park, with his owner.
Later on, as I’d gone to the park, I’d exercised, as I watched from over ten meters away, the dog do its “mid-air yoga” routine, it was, very funny to watch.
I’d never seen a dog that continuously, and do this move, long term, and enjoying it too, never getting tired of it.
Who was he imitating? There was, nobody who’s doing the moves around at all, on the stone benches.
If he wanted to imitate, it would be, more reasonable, for it, to imitate its owner I suppose? I saw a few footages of dogs imitating their owners on YouTube, or start singing the high-pitched notes, or lifted their legs to the back of their head, doing yoga, it was all, hilarious. The singing voice of the former video sounded like the Taiwanese saying of making fun of how badly one sounded when one sings; the latter, was with the narrator, taking the dog’s persona, showing off at the owner who’d used every single last bit of energy she has, to finally, place her legs behind her head, “Is it, that difficult to do.”
The dog at this park seemed to have made up a yoga move, and wasn’t imitating its owner at all.
But, early this morn, I saw the owner, the woman, in her fifties, lying on the stone benches, flipping her body to the left and the right again, then, with her legs and arms dangling, moved up and down, and swung left and right.
And so, that, is how the living organisms learn, by modeling behavior, and, the dog only picked up the yoga moves, because he had seen his owner do it, and perhaps, the dog got really bored, waiting for its owner to finish working out, that it thought, hey, why don’t I do the same thing that she’s doing too???
