Misunderstanding I would say - "\dd" is for objects and they are: 
'"Object" covers aggregates, functions, operators, types, relations 
(tables, views, indexes, sequences, large objects), rules, and 
triggers.' (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/app-psql.html, 
look for "\dd").

You could see the comment for the column with "\d+ table_name".
