I may be honored with being Dog of the Day today, but I could do nothing to prevent Middle Lad from a Viscious Attack at the Cincinnat Zoo today. Dog Breed Specific Laws???? What about Bird Specific Laws???
Middle Lad, Little Lad, Mom and the Wee Lass were inside a bird display at the zoo. There was an opportunity to feed the birds. Mom and Little Lad both held the little popsicle stick with bird food stuck on it and Parakeets land on their arms and greedily nibbled at the proffered food. Middle Lad did NOT hold a popsicle stick of food, as Middle Lad has food allergies and most bird food has nuts in it, and Mom did not have her interrogation tools with her to interrogate the Bird Keeper about the exact nature of the ingredients of the bird feed and the possibility of an allergic reaction by Middle Lad.
Still, Middle Lad found himself quite attractive to several of the Parakeets, which landed on his head, arms, and hands. That is when the attack happened.
A Rogue Parakeet BIT Middle Lad. Yes. Middle Lad had a horrible, at least two, yes two, millimeter gash on his right index finger.
I am quite proud of Middle Lad for not using his Taekwondo moves to take out this Rogue Parakeet; Middle Lad is after all a brown belt with red tips.
I feel utterly helpless, bestowed with the honor of being Dog of the Day, yet it my current state, there is nothing I can do to Avenge the Honor of Middle Lad, other than pursue Bird Specific Laws. I must urge Pennie to dispense forthright with Compression Therapy and Naturally Humidified Healing Vapors.

The nerve of that bird brain!
Love,
Coffee that bird better watch out or he will be joining us here at the bridge and I'm not so sure I'll throw him a welcome party! Birds are indeed horrible creatures.......
