Town: Tremont, Mississippi
Deaf dogs: Sage is a 5 year old Pitt/Boxer/Bluetick mix. Sage's
Mom and Dad and three litter mate Sisters live with us. She is so
sweet and loving. We have several acres fenced in so that she can
run freely and play safely. She is extremely smart and has learned
to communicate with us to let us know her needs. For example, she
barks at her food bowl if it is empty - even if she doesn't want to
eat. She lets me know when she wants the blankets on her bed changed
(which is several times a day - and night) by pulling the blankets
off her bed. She pokes me with her nose when she wants to be petted.
I would have a house full of deaf dogs if my husband would agree
Human companion: Stacey and Carlos

Deaf dog: Joxer is a 15 month old Great Dane. "Joxer is
just a sweet lovable goof-ball. He goes to work everyday with my mom
and I at the flower shop. He loves people, but sometimes, of course,
he can be a little bit mischievious. I have learned a lot from Joxer,
and I have more respect for deaf people than I did before. I have
a different, almost stronger, connection with Joxer than I do with
my other dogs."

Other pets: The "Muts", Ruby, Riker and Mytuke; and Ms. Peeper,

Frankie |
Town: Water Valley, Mississippi
Deaf dog: Frankie is a 3 year old American Pit Bull Terrier
mix. "Frankie's a great guy. We adopted him in May of 2002 after
we saw him on petfinder.org. He is so smart. Most people don't believe
he's deaf because he's so attentive. He doesn't miss a thing. Anyone
looking for a dog shouldn't rule out a deaf dog. If you have a little
extra time to spend with them, they make wonderful pets."
