Yes it is obvious he was a pack oriented dog. He will play with toys alone but he prefers playing with the other dogs, He will take the toy and keep shoving it in their faces until they play tug of war..

Aww that Tino is to funny and so sweet to share his toys with his buddy! Princess was a yard dog, so she wasn't acclimated to anything in the house either. I too have a standing mirror in the walk in closet and the first time she saw herself, she jumped back, then she got closer, and pawed at her image, then she went up to it and smelled it and moved side to side. Guess she figured that it was her own image and never bothered with it again. When I held Gigi up to the mirror she turned away.
I have even tried to take a picture of them with my web cam and once they see themselves, they turn away and won't look at the screen....so much for taking pictures that way.

The first time he saw himself in the sliding glass door he went nuts. It was so funny. He was posturing and getting all puffed up and kept charging the door. Then he decided he was friendly I guess, because he kept bringing it toys to make it play with him..

The funny thing is that Rocky uses a mirror to spy on the other dogs. I have a large mirror in my walk-in closet, it reaches all the way to the floor and is next to the door. Rocky will actually stand in the closet and use the mirror to watch Pepper and/or Rascal in the bedroom, then he runs and pounces.
