Introducing small animals to pups can actually be a dangerous process, especially for the small animal. This is because pups naturally have something called a prey drive, where they have the instinct to lunge after smaller creatures that are potentially prey. This actually is one of the reasons why pups and cats don’t get along well!
In this video, this black Labrador Retriever was introduced to a blue budgie. The budgie seems perfectly relaxed and happy on the pup’s Dad’s arm. In fact, when it is brought up close to the pup, it plays and nibbles the pup’s ear.
Meanwhile, the pup looks highly concerned. What is he supposed to do with this small creature? How is he supposed to act around it? Truly, his facial expressions and body language make for much amusement! Luckily, he gets used to the bird soon, although he gets stunned when the budgie flies off!
