The 'chasing' is happening in the mind because of the perception of duality. What if the tail and the dog merge ? Where is the two for one to chase the other ?
Suppose there is a life size stone model of a dog (well done , and looks life-like-real), appearing about to pounce at somebody, and you take a small child ( I choose a small child because we can agree that the child is honest, intelligent, alert, impartial, and not a pre-judged mind) , very close to this stone model. The first impression is the child is scared to approach. You have to take a lot of trouble and efforts, to convince that it is a mere stone model , and not the real thing !
Well, it is just the other way round in spirituality. The 'seen' thing covers up the unseen so well, that it takes a lot to perceive the ultimate truth which is subtle, and yet all pervading !

Who fed you that line? God is perfect, period. Perfection is not neccesarily God or even god-like. According to the bible, man was, at the very beginning, perfect. And he was neither God nor divine.

I'll go a step further and say: "God is perfect LOVE"...
now think about what that means.
our goal isn't to reach perfection...It's to follow Christ; He knows we'll stumble,mess up, fall short ~~~ but It's the EFFORT that counts.
God loves us so much, that while we were still sinners Jesus came and died for us....
How's that for PERFECT love??

The dog has caught his tail if this is the case.

No. But it's wagging really fast.
