Baby |
Town: Giebelstadt, Deutschland
Deaf dog: Baby is a miniature silver double dapple dachshund.
She is playfull and very seldom has a bad day. It is amazing to watch
her. She can spend an hour playing with a foam ear plug or marble.
She doesn't eat it or anything but she will somewho throw it into
the air and the chase it. Baby is getting older and has been spayed
about six months ago. She is such a clown and very lovable towards
me and very protecive. We are consant compainions. I have to tell
people that she is deaf as she doesn't show it. She acts as any normal
dog. I could have sold her a hundred time over and been rich for the
deal but as I could never sell a child of mine so goes my Baby.
Human companions: Robert Pearson & Ulrike Pearson and family
are owned by Baby. We live in a small farming community outside of
Wuerburg called Giebelstadt.
Other pets: Daisy, Dixie, Schnecke, Fife, Patches, Pepper,
Merlin, Pete, Becky, P.J., Molly and of course Baby. We also have
Harriet, Willie, Denise and Jackie who are all pure Rough Collies.
Our most recent addition has been two birds.

Silence |
Town: Bremen, Deutschland
Deaf dog: Silence is a 13 month old Dalmatian. His family says
"During my study to become a dog psychiatrist I read a book by Barry
Eaton 'A Guide to Training A Deaf Puppy,' because I wanted to be able
to handle these dogs as well and give support to their owners. When
I finished it I knew a deaf dog wouldn't cause problems when starting
training with him when he is a puppy. I didn't want to get a dog at
that time, but I came onto a webpage for Dalmatian rescue and I have
seen "Silence" in the web. Deafness was the reason for the breeder
to give him away...the breeder at least gave this dog a chance before
killing him as usually done with deaf dogs. I couldn't say NO to these
eyes and I and my family decided to take him before I graduated...although
my intellect said not to! But we have never regretted that decision
not at one day ever since!
Silence was easy to educate, not worse or better than a hearing dog....actually
he "hears" better than some of the hearing ones. I swear. Silence
is used to walk off leash. On small streets too. Just on main streets
I put him on. He moves his head through the collar of the retriever-leash
as a volunteer. He got no problems being with a leash for a short
while...he can run outside, play with other dogs or with me. We made
him love to play with us and this is the best trick for getting his
attention. When he thinks he can walk where he wants to, we run away...he
is so in panic when he doesn't see his family. Therefor he gives attention
to check where we are....one could never know! Even if we touch him
from behind he just looks around to see who it is. We only showed
him who the boss is in his language....and we taught him with love
and with patience. He is really a gift from God! A gift like any loving
animal who lives with us and all the ones living all over the world."
You can see Silence on his webpage www.free-dogs.de.
Then go onto the button "Me & friends". It is telling a lot about
the things between dogowner and his dog from Silence's point of view.
It's really funny but still gives basic information - a little different
then others.
Human companions: Michaela Gutekunst and family of 4
Other pets: 2 cats, 2 canaries
