Is There Another Pup In The House? According To This Adorable Pup, There's One!

Is There Another Pup In The House? According To This Adorable Pup, There's One!

If you weren’t already aware of this before, here’s a fun fact – not all animals pass the mirror-based self recognition test.

Which means that when you put a pup in front of a mirror, they don’t actually realize it is their own reflection! (Or at least, that’s what science tells us – our own experiences often suggest otherwise.)

Which means that when this one and a half month-old German Shepherd puppy spotted himself in the mirror, he thought that it was another puppy he could play with! It’s clear he is initially confused – just where did this other pup come from, and what is he doing here?

But he quickly warms up to this odd stranger, and now is trying to play with them! Sadly, they seem to be trapped behind a window. Oh no! Whatever can they do now? They can’t exactly play while one of them is trapped behind glass – surely there must be a solution to this.
