Winston, trust me on this one, ease off on the arm thing. In the end, you'll get more sweet potatoes.
Good luck,
Cleo"
always keep them guessing! & keep the treats coming.

LOL Cleo, I'm sure Winston feels the same way! Currently, he'll only step onto my arm when he sees a treat waiting for him - he knows how to work me

And yes Mark, I'm sure you have the much more volatile situation on your hands (literally and figuratively lol) - when I had to restrain Winston the other day to wash off the cut on his foot, he beaked my hand but never actually bit me

Kelly, I'm humbled by his trust in me too. He's an amazing guy and I'm so proud of him and pleased with how far he's come - he's very much been worth the effort.

Awwww yay for Winston. Maybe he realized you were ok when you had to help his foot. Jerry's probably been saying "see ? I told you she's trustworthy"....
