Default Please meet Hahns

I found this beautiful bird kept in a shabby cage sitting on the floor to the entry way of a run down house, he shared the entry way with a beat up filthy dog, Very little dirty water and no seed or food to be found.
I brought him home and cleaned him up, you could see the mud run off of him as I rinsed him down.
Hahns would lunge at anyone who neared his cage, he barked just like a dog, better than a dog actually, I began re-training him and one day while he was out with me walking around on the table he called me a f..kin A..hole, I said "what did you call me?", he repeated in as if being qued, I found out he could say many many more swear words.
Please meet Hahns, A severly abused Hahns Macaw.

What a horribly sad story. I'm so glad it had a happy ending!

What happened to the poor dog? Did you rescue him, too?

Thank you for taking him in! It may take a year or two but he will come around, been there!

Thanks for the kind words.
A community officer picked the dog up.

How long have you had him Arty? I bet he is in shock having a new wonderful life. I love my little Hahns, he is a clown.
