polo, my dog, is not friendly to any being or creature. he barks at everyone he is not familiar with the moment he sees them approach our gate (okay, super exception si bubu).

he barks at any dog/cat he sees, hears, or smells. he even tries to catch flies, insects, or any small moving creature that comes within his ‘pawing-distance.’

weird though, he is not irritated with the numerous birds (the brown maya bird flying about here in the city) chirping daily near his place in our garage.  mind you, these birds are constantly making ‘tambay’ at the electric post near/wires in front of our house, upon our gate, our window ledges, and anything they can perch on in our garden. then, eventually, these birds became bolder and started pecking off left-over food bits from polo’s food plate —  kakaibang sight talaga after polo is done eating from his plate; biglang swoop down ang daming chirping birds for a feeding frenzy (they seem to have mastered the time when polo is fed)!

polo does not bark at the birds. while the latter do not seem to be scared of the former. ang galing ng co-existence nila!

grabe nga lang ang ingay ng mga ibon — pero cute na rin.

kaso, grabe rin the bird poop they drop onto the cars, the gate, the window and the ledges, and the plant leaves in our garden — yuck!
