The Lady Adopted a Duck

I saw on Facebook about the lady who adopted a sick duck who was abandoned by its owner. The lady herself is sick with autoimmune disease, and her companionship with the duck improved her health. She taught the duck to swim, take it for a walk, take it anywhere she goes and the bonding became so strong. They are so nice to look at. It made me think of having a duck as a pet. Can a duck be a good pet? What do you think?

I think almost any domestic animal makes a good pet if you're able to spend time with it. Many wild animals do too but some have instincts that don't always match with being a good pet.

The lady and the duck looked so cute; they're very good friends.

@acelawrites My Mum had a pet turkey gobbler and he used to try to climb into her lap for a nurse.

Hmm, I'm thinking now to have duck as pet. It would be nice to be with chickens and goats.

Yes, if you have enough space in your yard, ducks are good to add to your domestic animals.

My plan is turkey and other fowl but I think ducks are just good.

I had a pet duck when I was a very young girl (this is the reason of my username). Ducks are great pets.

It is just like those therapeutic animals who can help patients get well.
