Hey,guys! Today I was having breakfast in my kitchen as usual sitting near the window. I saw a man walking with his dog outside. This man was moving forward and his dog was behind him, looking at something. I thought in English (while I am not English): "The man was waiting for the dog...having looked at something...or...when it would look at smth. Well, I dont't know.. It sounds a little bit strange, doesn't it?" So I'm puzzled. Does anyone know the right answer?
