For young children trying to explain and understand how a mirror works is complicated enough, so realistically what chance do puppies have? The mirror is a thing of mystery and who is that dog that always sneaks up on me as I walk past? It is almost as if the dog is waiting for me ready to pounce. That is what I imagine the thought process must be for most dogs when they discover a mirror for the first time, and I think it is fair to say that some dogs never really understand the mirror for as long as they live.
In this funny clip below we get to watch a stunning young puppy experience a mirror for the first time. And what is a young puppy to do when confronted with a devilishly handsome pup in his house? Well, there is really the only thing to do is to play, jump, hide and generally have fun with your guest. I mean you can’t just ignore him as that would be rude. Watch this charming video and smile along as the beautiful golden retriever puppy starts his learning path towards adulthood. It could very well be the cutest video you watch all day.
