[@OsterSocke]

This was truly amazing. Shawn is really a good student. He knows how to read his bird and how to prioritise in regards to what he wants to achieve and what the bird is giving him. And the update video at the end was just awesome! *-* Looking forward to the other students of this masterclass!

[@sharynzoo]

Having 50 birds, this video truly kept me captivated. Thank you for being such kind and patient trainers 💕

[@lagestita]

This guy is sooo gentle! Any fearful parrot would love to have him as an owner. He really is not likely to ever get bitten.

[@JWildberry]

I know! I'm not sure who's most charming; Shawn or Ruby. It was so great to see the trust and respect they had for each other, and both of them were patient with each other. I was smiling all the way through this video.

@cubomania3 have you watched any of the vidoes w her in them? She is not snotty acting. She is actually a sweet little girl that was very proud of the earrings. Any kid that gets something new wants to show it off to ppl. You seriously sound like you were a snotty child ir maybe jealous of how excited she was over them.

Agreeing with cubomania3 - there’s a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Confidence is a stength in being able to stand up for one’s self; arrogance is bullying and a tendency to stand on others.

Love the macaw screaming "my turn let me out of this Plexiglas box!" at 8:30

Anyone else fall a little in awwwww with Shawn as he worked so gently with his bird? Nothing's better than a gentle man with child or animal. Great job all! Miss Capri, you can video bomb any time! Need another vid of you 💕 Bondi!

Shawn is a GOOD man. I can only imagine how lucky any human would be to be in his life if he is this loving, respectful, gentle, and patient to a bird. 💜

[@dawnthemom857]

I love how Shawn is respecting his bird while moving her forward, with direction and help. I have had the privilege of adopting children in the building of my family and one of those little people was a toddler who had been hurt. It took many many years in the building of that little ones trust. We had constant tiny wins. We know this bird is as smart as a 3 year old child so it's a fair comparison IMO. It is SO worth is Shawn, keep going. You are the person she feels most comfortable with and you will get there with sweet Ruby. Very endearing video post. Great job all!!!

[@MrJdubz100]

African Grays are smarter than 3 year old children. They are as smart as a 5 year old human child.

[@TSUNAMI-MAMI]

Shawn has an exceptional bond with Ruby. What a gentle soul he is.

[@kerielwatson3197]

Shawn's love and care for that birds so obvious. His absolute patience and willing to take the tiny baby steps, ugh that's so attractive!

[@markr.houberg-lawton6543]

Way to go Shawn, Ruby loves you so much and the more time she spends the more she will learn what you want her to do. I can tell that she is a smart (and beautiful) Grey and I could see the she was getting almost as much satisfaction seeing you smile as the treat. Almost being the important word, "I like to see you smile Dad, but smile and give me a treat is better for me. That way I am super sure I am doing well 😊." Dave and Jamie, thanks for doing these classes, I was so excited when I saw Shawn's video I yelled "YES, good girl Ruby". My better half came running upstairs thinking something was wrong, lol🤭. You are amazing instructors and such a pleasure to watch.

I hope it wasn't any form of stress which was showing on the yellow and blue Macaw on the floor but that adhd rocking on the floor made me giggle. Beautiful bird!

Sean is so good with Ruby, they are really sweet together.

[@321maddeh]

Awww Shawn and Ruby seem like such sweeties! They obviously have a really trusting bond, and it was good to see someone so receptive to and respectful of their bird. So glad that Ruby had a breakthrough :)

[@leeannej.giggey8029]

I really wish I knew there were classes out there to teach owners how to train their birds and how to take care of them. I am so glad there are people like you guys out there.

[@LindaLuxable]

Congratulations to all of you for getting Ruby over her fear!

[@catw5294]

I so respect the work that both of you do helping people with these birds. These birds live so long and they are not "dogs." I know people who have had them and ended up giving them to sanctuaries when they could not handle them. So sad for the birds. What these people said about the experience afterward was just terrible. However, without training I've seen videos on KZbin that I could not live with normal birdie behavior of the bigger birds are nothing like yours. Training is SOOOOOOOOOO important. I would like to say thank you for your dedication to these beautiful creatures.

[@bshedn2202]

Wow...perseverance really paid off. Loved all the different ways of trying to build trust. Thank you for sharing. We love your vlogs.

[@BirdTricks]

Thank you!

[@NicoleThomas-cy1bt]

Wow. I learned so much from this video. Shawn's ability to understand Ruby and gain her trust is so amazing to watch. It took so much time and patience from the trainers and owner. The results are just beautiful to see; I'm so proud of Shaun and Ruby!

[@briemorrison3940]

I appreciate Shawn's patience with her, it's so sweet seeing this scared bird given the time to build up her trust

[@cecesheart32]

Dave is just a natural at “teaching” or being informative...and big kudos to Sean for being a great student and parrot owner. You guys rock!!!

[@firewaterbydesign]

I hope that you take the opportunity when working with your clients to remind them that these are soulful, loving, emotional beings that bond deeply with their humans and experience feeling just as humans do. I cannot believe the people that I run across that have absolutely no perception of the deep emotions and feelings that animals have, especially parrots with their high level of intelligence and understanding. In the 35 years that I have worked with birds, I am still amazed by their level of intelligence and deep emotions. Sending much love and an abundance of beautiful blessings to all! ❤

[@wholeNwon]

And, if you share your life with one (or any other animal for that matter), be sure you have made good provisions for its welfare in case (or for when) you die!!

Haha totally! She was so cool! 🥰

[@tzxazrael]

@@BirdTricks but let's be honest... you wanna take EVERY bird home with you, don't you? (i know i would lol) i mean, i know it isn't possible; any given person only has so much time in each day, and so only has enough time for a certain number of birds, no matter how good they are with them... but what's possible and reasonable doesn't stop us from WANTING it haha

Oh my goodness! Shaun is wonderful. I can feel his patience. What a lovely guy. Couldn’t be in better hands. Made me sad she’s in this position. Having two greys both rescues, this channel is so helpful. I’m learning daily even though I’ve had a grey 21 years

[@milonguero008]

I can so much understand your frustration in KNOWING, in FEELING a movement and not being able to CONVEY how it's done. As a semiprofessional dance teacher it's very often that I do something very (by now) naturally and have to really analyze HOW I'm doing it to allow other people to copy it and then develop their own version of it. Great job - it's nice watching you guys. 😊

My african grey is 28 years old - we got her when she was still being hand fed formula, and she ate it just short of a year. She has learned your targeting trick BUT she is the one teaching me - she now requires a treat. to get her to step up - no treat, no step up. She is smarter than my husband and me combined😃. Truly an amazing member of our family.

[@ahab6969]

@@alyssasowell774 Well there are 2 things to consider 1. It is a sign of social behavior to groom the feathers of other birds - or the imprinted person/animal. Normally they do it with a persons hair/beard and if they do it along the earlobe it is more nibbling than biting. 2. Careful with earrings, piercings and the "eary" part of eye glasses.If the Bird is in the imprint phase it might get the impression that it can bite it with more pressure than the soft parts of your ear. In very rare cases one needs to retrain the bird. I am glad that it worked out with your bird though.
