The abandoned magpie began barking like a dog after being adopted by her beloved dog, who is considered a mother.

Lovely magpie Molly came close to death after being abandoned by the bird’s parents last September, but she was lucky to be found by cute British worker Peggy.

The one-year-old pooch looked after Molly as if she were her own puppy, and thankfully, with the help of Peggy and her owners Juliette, 45, and Reece, 52, she made a full recovery.

As a result of being cared for by the loving pooch, Molly said that she no doubt considered herself a dog, and now began to bark like her best friend.
