What kind of bird is it?
If it is one of the 2 native parrot species of the DR he is out of luck. Both are considered endangered and next to impossible to import to the US. It it is a species native to the DR He is probably out of luck. If it was a bird imported into the DR he can bring it to the US if it has all its papers but he must realize that it must pass quarantine in the US 60 days last time I checked.

Check with the US Dept of Agriculture first. Then to see if can be exported from the DR.

Failing that, another possibility is to stuff the bird up the sleeve of a loud, plaid sports jacket, while accompanied by a well-built rubia wearing a simple, low-cut dress and no jewellery.... Just don't go through the Customs line "manned" by an overweight, black female inspector, hehehe

This web site will help you with the USA requirements for importing a pet bird. I don't know about the Dominican regulations for allowing the export.
