No, they don't recognise themselves in mirrors, but when they do happen to see into a mirror they will usually bark, because they don't know that the dog in the mirror is them. they just think that it is another dog, so they bark at it or ignore it.
It is quite unccommon for a dog to see in a mirror though. i once picked up my dog and turned his face towards the mirror and he just looked for a second and then turned away and acted normal.

To answer 3, that is not sufficient information to say that they recognize themselves in the mirror. For all you know they could be interpreting it as another dog.

∙ 14y agoDogs do look in mirrors, but they do not understand that the animal looking back at them is themselves. Humans and apes are the only animals that have self recognition capabilities. So when a dog looks in a mirror they see another dog, which is why a lot of dogs tend to bark at their reflections.

∙ 15y agoYes, but they don't recognize the image as themself, just as a dog. They can see themselves, but often times they can't tell it's themselves.
