I had a boss who had a conure and his bird would actually give the dog commands (sit, stay, down ect.) and the shih tzu would actually listen!!
It was the funniest thing I have ever seen.
Also, whenever the shih tzu puppy would have an accident, the bird would scold her and say "Bad Lolly! Bad dog!"
My boss said his puppy was completely housetrained within a month because the bird was helping to scold any accidents as they happened, no matter where he was! LOL!!
The bird was his dog's nanny!
