I know of an African Grey who was very observant and loved to annoy the dachshund. The dachshund was named Peanut because he resembled one. If anyone came to the door or rang the bell the parrot would call out to the dog... Peanut, Peanut, Peanut. He would go on until the dog would go to the door and start barking. Then he would start to laugh like a human and the dog would get mad. How he loved to annoy. He would even bark. They are a treat to watch and they can be quite destructive too.
Good narration.
Best wishes
Sylvia

    I did and it brought back many parrot memories, I owned three in the past. The African grey and a couple of Lorikeets, vicious little guys.

Thank you for sharing. I, too, have seen this in the past, and when it does happen it's as priceless as seeing an infant pretend to be an adult. I like how you chose this instance to write about. The moments of laughter is a subtle gift.

This is a cute story. It is readable. I think even children as young as six would comprehend it. A parrot barking like a dog sounds like a keeper. He also sounds bilingual. Or maybe he has a future career doing voice-overs for dog cartoons LOL. Nice share. I think I would put a comma after "The parrot was with those dogs" and that's about it to fix.

-Nice artwork, Raul1.
-I think parrots and
birds like it can be
very humorous, like
"kids say the darnedest things!"
-This parrot apparently
liked dogs!
-Their antics can make
us laugh out loud and wonder
"how do they do that?!"
-Good luck in the contest.

Fido, the Parrot. I bet that WAS a sight to behold. I wonder what was going through the dogs' minds? (depending on the dogs and the size of their brains)
Funny situation for your 50 word write. Good short story.

Good morning Raul1. That was a nice little short story. I commend you, I don't think I could write a story in just 50 words. Good job and good luck in the contest.

this piece is just fine. i think it could use a bit more flare and charisma but for the fifty word limit, i think it gets the job done. picturing a parrot barking, though, does have me laughing.

This is a nice story, funny and amusing, taletelling is realistic, a parrot somehow managed to bark like dogs around it; well said, well done. Liked and enjoyed the read. Write-Inspire --DR ALCREATOR

A very funny story in a very compact format. I have tried the fifty word story format before and know it is very difficult to do. They say some animals aren't intelligent, I disagree.

Some animals do bond with those of different species and take on the behaviour of their friends. I guess the parrot sees himself as a dog. It would be really funny to watch them. Good luck in the competition.
