Likes to look at himself in the mirror while training.

I always have read that dogs do not have self-awareness when they see themselves in the mirror - that they think it is another dog. I believe it is said that only elephants have proved self-awareness in a mirror.

From the way Aztec looks at himself in the mirror though, I am almost positive he knows it is himself. He can never walk by a mirror without admiring himself.
 
My dogs know themselves in the mirror - and they know me in the mirror too. I know there is a theory that dogs arent self aware, but I was reading a recent publication by Clutton-Brock who said otherwise. If you see the silly antics my two get up to in the mirror - they bite and wack each other while looking in the mirror, they are definately aware what they are doing.
 
Ontario and Jasper those are some cute pictures !:biggrin2: When Kia sees herself in the mirror she barks and sometimes growls at herself ! What a hoot !!:lol:
