you might say to him "a dog sees me" when one of the many dogs sees you" (as opposed to the dog sees me).
No. More natural to say a dog has seen me or more likely one of the dogs has spotted me.

There is of course a special usage of the present simple in telling a joke or a story. A man goes into a bar.

So perhaps, 'a dog sees me and I start running ..'

sudanglo, why is it so vitally important to you that a silly example sentence should be something realistic?
