Parrot Tricks

Polly wants an audience! There are approximately 14 million parrots in U.S. homes. With this book, owners can teach their parrots simple tricks like 'take a bow' as well as tricks with props, such as climbing a rope. And the tricks aren’t just for fun–they help give parrots the mental stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. Tani Robar (Seattle, WA) has trained parrots to do tricks for the past 25 years and has appeared on Pet Star on Animal Planet. Diane Grindol (Pacific Grove, CA) writes a column for Bird Talk magazine and is the author of Cockatiels For Dummies (0-7645-5311-9).
