Mambo bartering for food......

Everday Mambo plays with the round wood balls off a toy, and drops them and I have to stop the puppy from grabbing them and slobbering them up LOL! This is all day long!

We had to place the dog food bowls in the LR so I can keep the puppy from trying to be alpha and forcing our older dog to "wait" until he is ready to let him eat, total brat!

Anyway, yesterday I watched Mambo go to the floor and grab one of the wood balls, I thought he was going to go back up his cage with it, NOPE, he crept over to the puppys food dish, and leaned his head under Sampson's head and dropped the ball into the food dish and snitched a piece of dog food for it LOL!

While my birds aren't allowed to eat the dog food, I have never seen anything like that happen before! It was too funny
