Why do people do that? I kept waiting for the dog to finish him. Was he really nursing or just picking? My dog is a saint, & I never let merlin close enough to bite her. He will fly to her back sometimes, I guess it could happen to me. Wonder if the dog had bit & swallowed the bird would they have posted that video.

Sometimes some people really do tempt fate. I would never let any of my birds torment my dogs like that. Even though i know my dogs would never hurt my parrots you just never can be that sure.
What a good, patient dog!! That beak could have hurt her nipple. This is a catastrophe waiting to happen. In my work, I've known many birds that were not nearly so lucky as this bird. Even though it worked out okay, I think it's irresponsible parrot ownership. Besides, I've always heard that birds should not drink milk.
