Inhaltsangabe

A properly trained parrot is a wonderful pet and a poorly trained parrot can be a feathered monster. This book gives parrot parents the tools to help ensure that their birds become social, tame, and fun companions. Advocating only positive, humane methods, the author guides the reader through the basics of training including terminology and various techniques and progresses to more advanced tasks, such as trick training, training a flighted parrot, and training a parrot to talk. The author addresses many more topics bird parents will find useful, including behavioral enrichment and training a parrot to tolerate or even participate in nail trimming, wing clipping, wearing a harness, and riding in a carrier. The Perfectly Trained Parrot is a comprehensive resource for forging a strong and loving bond with a well-behaved parrot.
