Research has proven that pups aren’t really capable of identifying their own reflection in a mirror as themselves. In fact, humans are one of the few creatures that are capable of doing so.
That, however, does mean that it is a great source of amusement for us when our pups are certain that there is another pup staring back at them!
Max the Labrador Retriever was chilling with his human sibling on the bed when he spotted his own reflection in the mirror. It immediately has his attention – who is this strange other pup? Why are they here? The pup gives the mirror his full attention.
As it turns out, Max doesn’t like his reflection! He tries to call his human sibling for backup via barking. Sadly, his brother doesn’t seem to understand, and doesn’t come to his need! Instead, the human brother tries to call for Max’s attention, but Max is too busy focusing on the strange pup in the mirror to care.
