Interesting. I'd think dogs would know you by scent, but this story makes me think it's body language that's important.
There are variations on Borrowed Identity Syndrome.
For example, I heard about a guy who thinks his right hand is Scarlet Johansson.

That was the most interesting thing I've read recently
