Is it ok to get a dog when you have a slightly bratty parrot?

I was thinking about getting a dog next christmas, but I have a small parrot with very “dominering” personality who is very used to being the center of attention and is a bit spoilt. The dog would be alowed inside, so I was wondering if this would have a detrimental effect on either the dog’s or the bird’s behaviour and training.

Answer #1

Answer #2

My aunt’s parrot LOVES the dog…or I should say, loves teasing the dog…Calls her name all day long, and she always comes running…LOL…

Answer #3

lol, my parrot kinda got lonely once we got my dog… she’s more quiet and honestly doesnt get as much attention as she used to (everyone dotes on the dog). So yeah it is something to keep in mind… unless the parrot is free flying, it is easier to give the dog more attention, I mean s/he can follow you around… It’s up to you though… you just need to find a balance

Answer #4

It should be just fine, it’s when you have a fish with a attitude you have to be careful.
