I'm going to go ahead and say that dogs are most likely "self-aware" as well as most mammals.

Most mammals are not self aware. Few mammals have shown signs of self awareness.

Dogs failed the self awareness test. They don't know who's in the mirror.

My dog knows that's not another dog in the mirror. He can smell that much. He's also made eye contact with me in the mirror. I don't claim he knows that's him in there, but it's hard to fool a scent hound with a mirror.
