as shepherd and guarding dog
A dog treat, make some special dog food, dog toys, take him for a LONG walk, I mean anything the dog likes!
as a guarding dog and for chasing rats
The Dalmatian is traditionally a cart guarding dog. This lead to them being kept in firehouses.
First, try sitting in the dog bed and having the dog sit next to you. Show the dog the bed is OK and it is ment for them. If your dog is 'food oriented' use treats to persuade the dog to the bed and keep it there. :)
Your dog is not guarding you from YOUR reflection, she is guarding you from HER reflection. Humans tend to forget that, while dogs are incredibly smart, they still don't know that a mirror shows a reflection because they don't know what a reflection is. Therefore, because she doesn't know what a mirror is, she doesn't know what she looks like and thinks that her reflection is another dog. That's why she brings her toys to the mirror. Not to look at herself, but to try and play with her reflection. She thinks its another dog to play with. She guards you from the "other dog" because she is being possessive of you, saying, "Back off, she's mine and you can't have her."
