When I was younger, my late wife and I had two dogs. We'd take them out back for them to run in the field of grass. Tall grass.

The smaller dog, a Sheltie (Amber) could only be seen by the way the grass moved. The larger dog, half-shepherd (Chaos), half beagle, was taller than the grass, and could more easily be seen.

I made of tales of Amber, the bane of pigmies everywhere. :)

So yes, if you're close to the ground, I might give a slight penalty to be seen. Of course, since the girls usually barked like mangiacs, spotting them wasn't too difficult.
