Have you heard about Alaskan Malamute breed? How about an Alaskan Malamute with a parrot for a best friend. A 4-year-old Alaskan Malamute by the name Tydus, living in South Africa with his owner and Trez – is a mischevious African Grey parrot and Tydus’ loyal companion.
Dogs are not only man’s best friend, but they can also be amazing friends with other animals as well. We always love to hear stories about unusual animal friendships and Tydus and Trez are giving us some serious friendships inspiration.
The 5-year-old Alaskan Malamute is already a star with more than 160 thousand followers on Instagram. You won’t see Tydus and Trez posing together that often on Instagram. They have appeared on numerous websites and social media pages such as 9gag, The Dodo, and Unilad.
In an interview for Hello Bark, the owner explained that the dog and the parrot are both dominant and that makes their friendship a bit complicated.
“They don’t really get along that well. Trez is very dominant and won’t think twice about biting one of Tydus’ paws. We always monitor them and would never leave them alone with each other.”
“Tydus starts howling as soon as he hears an ambulance or whenever he is bored. Trez will then pitch in and say: “Tydus stop it. Good boy!”. Trez comforts him by talking to him while they are alone,” their owner said.
Look at some of these adorable and lovely photos.
