You probably don't need to touch the class, but a particular object. You
can lexically scope changes to an object using but and my quite easily.
If you really need a modified class, then I think this would do it, but
I'm not sure if it works:
my $junkyarddog = class is Dog does Guard {};
my ::($junkyarddog) $spot .= new;
