Everyone meet Samantha, an adorable dachshund pup who’s having the time of her life meeting another dachshund pup, but there’s one problem. That dachshund pup is doing exactly what she’s doing! Can you guess?
That’s right it’s a mirror! Samantha the dachshund pup can’t contain herself after watching herself in the mirror. Of course she doesn’t know its her, she probably thinks it’s another puppy out there wanting to play with her 🙂 But have you ever wondered why your fur balls react like this when they come across a mirror?
According to PsychologyToday, “Many people are puzzled by the fact that dogs seem to ignore images of themselves reflected in a mirror. Young puppies encountering mirrors for the first time may treat the image as if it is another dog. They may bark at it, or give a little bow and an invitation to play as if they are encountering a real dog and engaging in a social interaction. However, after a short while they lose interest. Afterwards then often seem to treat their reflections as if they were of no consequence at all.”
Now take a look at Samantha getting hyper excited after seeing herself in the mirror on page 2 below!
