Parrot Loves Going To Home Depot With His Dad | The Dodo Soulmates 

This man needs better friends who understand animals

Can we all appreciate that Home Depot let this man in with his winged relative. Very cool Home Depot.

That "hello" when he saw the tattoo just made me so happy.

"I don't own him. He owns me." Every good fur/feather parent gets that line. 😂💙

When he shot him and he fell upside that was absolutely adorable.

Him: scans his bird Scanner: priceless

60-70 year life span?! What a dream!! I wish my cats could live that long 😢

What’s not to get? One look at the two of you together and you’re soulmates. May be different species, but you were definitely meant to be together. It’s truly a beautiful bond.

I teared up when the bird sayed " i love this " bless animals for their gentle soul..

“How can you have such affection for a bird?” Um, how could you not?

“How could you have such affection towards a bird?” That broke me. A week ago one of my baby chicks passed, and today just a few minutes ago another one passed away. I loved them dearly.

Congratulations on such a healthy bird with its feathers and not stressed out and sick. It is beautiful.

So we just gonna ignore the fact this cutie just said, "I love this" in a Home Depot? Edit: spelling

“....he fulfilled something I didn’t know I needed.” Boy...it’s a wonderful thing when that happens.

You can see the love in both of their eyes! He loves his new Daddy for sure! Thank God they found each other.

This made me think of my sweet feisty chicken Twinkle, I only had her for six years before a fox unfortunately killed her, but she was an amazing bird! Twinkle was best friends with my cat, I still have photos of the two of them cuddling. We had two kittens and a goat grow up with her and learned to respect her even when they became bigger than her, she’d ride around on the goat’s back, it was so cute. She was a free bird, she’d sleep in trees or on the roof of our car, we could never keeps her in the pen we had, she’d always find a way to escape. She also used to love riding on my shoulders and I’d take her into town with me on walks. I miss her every day.

This man has such a big heart and this bird has such a big personality

This is why even most ruthless pirates loved parrots.

We have a guy who brings his Cockatoo to Home Depot here in Loveland, CO. So cute. 🕊️

Cockatoos are just so beautiful. Just Imagine a bird waddling into a store, so cute.

The fact that he can take him anywhere with absolutely no fear of him flying away or getting lost really shows how special and real this relationship is!

I love when he says “Hello.” to a tattoo of himself. Beau is adorable & i wish him nothing but happiness. 🥺❤️

I walked into a rescue place that had a store attached to it that helped raise money for the rescue. They had dogs, cats and birds. Anyway, I went in to buy Christmas gifts for my dogs and they had several birds sitting out in the shop on stands. I’d never looked twice at birds before but I came face to face with a 9 month old umbrella cockatoo. We kind of looked at each other for a minute then I reached out to give him a scratch and he leaped onto my arm. We had another staring moment and then he buried his head under my chin and lay flat on my chest. I tried to put him on his perch but he wouldn’t go. The shop keeper said normally he didn’t let anyone near him. It was weird this instant connection we had. The next thing I knew I was walking out of the shop with a cockatoo, all the required accoutrements and several books on cockatoos, their personalities and the care they required. That was 27 years ago and we still adore each other. I never did pick up anything for my dogs that day either. I have also rescued several other cockatoos as well since then. They are amazing birds.

Look how adorable he is. How can you not fall in love. They are lifelong companions for sure

He’s not just a bird, he’s a friend . People who don’t understand it, have never had that special connection with a pet . I’m a huge believer in the pet picking it’s human-it’s wonderful to see

Dad: doesn't want parrot Family: Gets parrot anyway Dad and Parrot:

If your friends dont get how you can ❤ your bird so much, than you need new friends. 😂

Animals never betray you. Their love is pure, simple and unconditional.

My neighbor passed away 2 year's ago none of his family wanted his African gray. So my wife brought him home until we found him a new home. But as soon as he met our dog, we knew he already found his new home. They do everything together.

1:48 it’s so funny and cute how birds walk! It looks like he’s strutting his stuff :D

You're truly blessed to have this special bond, but most importantly, parrots live for such a long time. I wish I had more time with the animals I had my bonds with

Sir, don't waste your time explaining your relationship to other people. Just enjoy your special relationship with your bird and always do right by him. However, please be super aware there are always raptors out there and they can swoop down and attack before you can react. Many have lost their precious loved ones in this manner.

I never realized a bird who can still fly would not necissarily fly away if taken outdoors. I'm so glad you haven't clipped his wings. What a very special bird ❤❤

Everyone should strive to have a companion like this

Love seeing videos of people with birds! It’s a lifelong commitment. A lot of people don’t understand how long these birds live for. If in a healthy environment they can live 60 years no problem. It’s a big commitment due not only to the length of time but the amount of social interaction that the birds require. In the wild the live in fairly large, communal gatherings. They have social interactions much the same as humans. My grandfather had African grey until time he died. He spent a lot of the last 2 years of his life finding a suitable home for Shakespeare… the parrot.

The way he said “hello?” To the tattoo 🥺🥺🥺

He isn’t “just a bird”! I live in Australia with these, wild. And, they’re incredibly intelligent. They know if you’re a good person or not.

Large birds are one of the smartest pets you will ever own, and the express more affection than any other pet ever could

Everyday that bird is living his absolute best life!!!! Love it

Forget Disney princesses, this dude’s a fully fledge Disney King. He got the girl, and the birb.

This bird has more personality than some humans

That bird has a SOUL... you can see it in the eyes and almost feel it.

What a joy to watch. My heart was bursting the entire time. I understand your love for your beautiful, smart, clowny friend. I am sitting here, still smiling. Thank you for sharing your very special little friend with us. I love him!!!

The way he looks at the tattoo of himself and says "Hello" oh my god

I loved the fact that he didn't cage Beau. People cage birds because they think that if the birds are free then they will fly away and will never come back again. But the truth is that, if you love someone and if that creature loves you, then he/she will come back to you, no matter what. You don't need a cage, you just need to have a kind, compassionate and loving heart.

"I don´t own him. He owns me." (1:23) - That´s it. I can absolutly understand this relationship. 🙂 All the love for you!

I'm crying 😭😭😭 That bird is so cuteeeee😭❣️❣️ I also have a parrot and she is also affectionate towards me.. but not this much...she just comes and sleep in between my arms whenever she gets the chance ❤️ I love birds.

Guy - "He's fulfilled something I didn't know I needed" companionship and love. Wife looks at him - ..............................

1:16 “how could you have such affection towards a bird?” Because it’s easy to fall in love with lovable things..? Birds are adorable!

"i don't own him, he owns me" now now every pet owner can relate to that, including me!

Hearing Beau say "Hello." around 2:42 is so indescribably cute, it literally leaves me speechless & makes me laugh, respectively. Beau is cute, too!...

Why did the parrot leave Home Depot feeling sad? He didn't have enough money to make his perches.

I love that he can actually fly but he decides to just walk around 😂

I love their relationship. I love this bird!

Some of the best love stories do NOT always involve another human being..I'm so glad you found each other!!! Living your best life ❤️ together!! What a great story!! Blessings to you and the whole fam!❤😊

There is nothing in this world more full filling than that special connection to any pet that never judges you and is always there for you I'm thrilled you two found one another

one of my neighbors has a bird like this. The bird would just sit on the porch talking to me. While i was on my porch from across. He actually speaked, and you could understand him. Like our first meet he was like. “hi, what’s ur name?” in his cute bird voice

I loved it when he was so thrilled to be at Home Depot and said "I love this!" It's obvious you make each other happy.

😃It’s like having a Toddler in a Feather Suit😂👍❤️

I loved it when Beau said “I love it” in the Home Depot 😍

My heart absolutely melted when Beau said “I love this” 😍😍

I teared up when he was sitting on the cart and said “I love this” so awesome this man is giving this bird the love and life he deserves!!

This is so special. I just named my bird Beau

People who have never owned a bird are sadly unaware of the PURE LOVE AND AFFECTION that a bird can feel for it's favorite human. I was blessed to be loved by an adorable Cockatiel that I still miss to this day.

Looks like this man is equally as obsessed with his bird as the bird is with him

Sitting on the cart "I love this" God, how sweet.

Yes, this bird is terrific and makes everyone smile and laugh

You both have a lifelong friend that loves unconditionally.

"I don't view him as pet anymore. I view him as family extension" That is all you need to know about a person. When they give you such an answer, that person is a keeper. Honestly

Can we just get some praise for the Home Depot owner for letting him come in regularly.

Thank you for sharing your life with Beau, he is so awesome. Give him BIG KISSES AND HUGS from me. BIG LOVE ❤ to you all. xx

Omg birb owners just feel affection on a diff level i needed to see this thank you:)

Yes, many years ago my friend's father passed away and my friend inherited his cockatoo, Rocky. His father got Rocky in 1958 and he is still going strong. These really are life long companions so please take this into consideration before making the commitment. Rocky was very lucky my friend loves him just as much as his father did, but unfortunately the sad truth is many are abandoned after their owners pass away.

I love how he's pretending to fly when he's skateboarding even though he can already fly.

I have never had the pleasure of having a bird as a pet/member of my family, but I get so much joy from watching those of you blessed enough to have these amazing creatures as part of your family. I am lucky enough, though, to have a leafy, treed backyard where I get to see lots of varieties of birds make nests and see their eggs hatch and new babies leap from the nests and eventually fly. Birds are amazing creatures.

If I had a friend like him, i would be at his door every weekend

My Sister had a Cockatoo and he was just in love with me. I lived across the street from her and the second he would see me outside he would start screaming out the window. She would call me and ask to come over to say hello because he wouldn't stop yelling. When I would walk in he would make his way and open his door and tell me to " Come here", he would then climb on my arm and start asking " How are you?" he would say things like... "Whatcha do'in....Do you love milk( His name was Milk), he would tell me he loved me, whistle at me, just the most loving bird ever. well, I had to move and he became depressed, he began rocking while looking out the window so she had to move his spot. He would call my name over and over so she would replay a voice recording I left her on her voicemail so he could hear me calling his name. That sweet bird got a toenail infection that gave him a hard time on the stoop. During the operation, he passed. Such a loving bird, I do understand the affection he has for this Bird, I loved Milk too!

This man and bird are living the kind of life that God intended from the beginning in Eden. I love that there are still touches of heaven like this

I totally get this connection ❤❤❤❤.thank you for taking,rescuing him....

Okay its cute that when you're skateboarding he's pretending to fly.

"no matter if your pet is a dog , your pet can always be your dog"

This bird looks much happier than others I’ve seen videos of. Some of those birds looked bored & almost anxious, which makes me sad. This guy is awesome! What a close bond they have! It’s fantastic that he went to find one to adopt instead of buy. Relinquished birds really need good homes, especially considering their life spans.

So I’m guessing his wife is just like a third wheel in the relationship now?

"He's fulfilled something I didn't know I needed" ...that's deep

he's adorable, such a smart buddy, i would love to have him free around like this 🥺🥺

“How can you have such affection for birds?” Said people who have NEVER had one and don’t understand the camaraderie.

All “pet owners” should be this loving to their pets as this guy. They are an extension of the family not just a “pet”.

“I don’t own him, he owns me” could not have said it better!

Constantly amazed by these wonderful birds. Lucky you!

You made me cry....... how amazing... wonderful beautiful bird..God bless you both!!

When he said he was 15 my heart sunk then he said he had 50 or 60 more years and my heart sunk for the bird. Let them both live forever 😭

I remember when my bird died I cried like a baby and didn't go to work for 3 days. I loved him so much

I recently saw cockatoos in the wild in Australia. I would love to have one; it’s always fun to me to see birds respond to humans, and in such cute , intelligent ways.

He’s like a movie star: beautiful, charismatic and talented! In love with Beau! ❤️

Them: "How can you have such affection for a bird!?" Me: "Because he's awesome!"

Parrots are highly intelligent sensitive animals. When they get stressed, they suffer. Neurotic birds become that way when owners are abusive. The birds become aggressive, depressed, which is what happens when they pluck their own feathers. This is a love story that warms my heart. 😍🧡

Too cute when he said, " I love this."

How can you have so much affection for a bird? Well, I feel like pets always fulfill something we didn’t know we needed. That probably has a lot to do with it. ♥️ plus, just look at him! 😭

I think Beau won the lottery. Turned in by a previous family, he could have wound up plucking his feathers out and going nuts. But he got just the right owner! Blessings on the both of you!

Animals do have intelligence, feelings, and personalities. Humans continue to underestimate them. They don't wreak havoc in the world, but humans do.
