Nancy: Have you got a watchdog at your house?
Boy: Nope. That's what we've got---He's BETTER than a watchdog-- ---Instead of barking, he hollers for HELP.
We have two Amazon parrots and they are better than a watchdog during the day. They like order and they let you know right away when something isn’t right.
Best watchdog in the universe is my (well, actually my daughter’s) pet Pomeranian. She has to sleep in my bedroom cuddled up next to my wife. If, during the night, I get up for any reason she starts barking as if I’m a stranger. Gets annoying if I gotta get up to pee.

The strip brings to mind the tune recorded by a group named THE Trashmen.
“Now everybody’s heard about the bird, the bird bird bird, the bird is the word…”
If you like the tune, check out anywhere for a TEN-HOUR VERSION!

A grey goose would be a better ‘watchdog’ -they’re downright evil!

Parrots can’t think, only mimic voices.
