Town: Santa Maria, California Deaf dog: Gus is a 17 year old Westie. Gus was rescued from a nearby shelter when he was 5 years old. We have had him ever since. He really is a great dog and so sweet. He may be 17 yrs old now but he is in great shape, he lost his hearing about 2 years ago and now his eye site seems to be dimming. We know he may die soon and it will be hard to see him go, we love him so much. Tucker is a 2.5 year old Westie. He was rescued over a year ago thru the West Highland White Southern CA rescue group. Tucker was found at a pet shop (no one knew he was deaf). Eventually he made his way out west from Las Vegas and he is wondeful! He is full of life and does silly things but you'd never know he was deaf.

Town: Mojave, California Deaf dog: When I first got the dog (boxer-pit bull mix) it was for companionship with my other dog. I wanted the same type of dog so I knew that a litter was around so I spoke up and said I wanted one (boy). He did get the care he needed when he was with has brother and sisters. The third day I had him I said "he's deaf!" and sure nuff - little guy can't here a thing. So now he's spoiled like a little prince. My three year old girl dog helps out so much. Got him at five weeks now he is three months. He is starting to pick up signs. But bites like two puppys !!!He likes walking in the park just if its only prince and I. He also likes skateboards - not chewing them but likes to pump and hop on. I think he's a real smart ... We live 1.5 miles away from the train, only one time has it coupled together, but you can feel it as you're hearing it. When this happend he ran like crazy. He has got a lot to learn!

Town: Santa Barbara, California Deaf dog: Sydney is a 4 year old Australian Shepherd. "Sydney is a really cool dog! When I first saw him I knew he was special. Two years ago, Sydney was dropped off for training at the kennel for training and was never picked up. It's sad they never got to see the results of his traning. Being partially blind, with those bright blue starburst eyes, he learned big sweeping hand gestures for come, sit, lay down, and stay. He also heels and walks marvelously on a leash. All in all I think he's really an amazing dog for one who is deaf and blind. He's a breeze to handle and it's great having him around. He never stops making me laugh." Human companions: Terren B., boyfriend Paul, and Emily his Grandmother. Other pets: Goldie, Cocker Spaniel and Yoshi, Tabby, keep Grandma Emily company. Email: terren@braingod.com |
 Zero |
Town: Camarillo, California Deaf dog: Zero is a 2 year old American Pit Bull Terrier. " I had passed on dog ownership and issues of responsibility for quite a while until I babysat this guy from 3 to 6 months old while his owner traveled. Then, I just had to have him for my birthday present. He's funny the way he barks at imaginary things, and when he wants to go for a walk he opens his mouth and closes it like he's seen us do when we talk, but no sounds come out. He's very playful, earning his latest nickname 'matrix dog' for his wild indoor sprinting. " Human companions: Tam O'Shanter Other pets: He has a friend, a white miniature schnauzer, who he plays with all day. See photos of Zero and his friend. Email: tamoshanter@cattanooga.com |
