For humans, mirrors are pretty common objects we use every day to get ready and make sure we don't have food in our teeth. For animals, though, these everyday items can be pretty baffling. They probably wonder how on Earth another creature managed to get inside one of these things! Gretzky probably had tons of thoughts running through his head when he saw himself in a mirror for the first time, and the way this pit bull puppy reacted has me in tears of laughter.
There's just something so cute about watching a confused puppy try to figure out exactly what is going on when they encounter their reflection for the first time. This fluffy golden retriever puppy couldn't possibly have been any more frustrated when he tried to play with the new buddy he found in the mirror! Gretzky almost looks more scared than confused, though. He probably thought some strange new dog was in his house! I felt so bad when he bonked his nose as he ran away, but luckily, he seems unharmed… just a bit baffled by what's going on.
I'm sure Gretzky will eventually get used to seeing his reflection, but it sure was funny to watch him get so confused by what was happening. It's just one more example of how pit bulls aren't nearly as aggressive as the media makes them out to be — this poor puppy wanted to run away from that new dog rather than fight him! I'm sure that just like any puppy, Gretzky will learn about a lot more "weird" man-made objects as he grows up and learns to navigate the world around him.
