The art of spotting a dog owner by her footwear

BY INVITATION

I have a funny incident regarding this art work (pointing to her footwear, chewed away in places by Astra).
I was buying from a fishmonger who is not my regular one, at a place far away from home.
After I had picked up my packet, he asked me, “Do you have a dog?”
I replied, “Yes, but how did you know?“
I was wondering… am I smelling / do I have dog hair all over me?
But he only smiled.
Then he pointed at the art work I was wearing!!!!! (broad smile).
