 Rondo

Deaf dog: Rondo is a 2 year old Boxer mix. We rescued Rondo
from the shelter and realized after a few days he could not hear.
We have made great strides in hand signals over just 3 months. He
is a great loving dog and all the myths about deaf dogs that friends
and family warned me of were wrong!

Blue Bell
|
Town: Derry, New Hampshire
Deaf dog: Blue Bell is going to be three years old in June.
She is a wonderful, smart and loving dog. She has learned dozens
of hand signals...some very subtle, as well as taking cue from facial
expressions. We have also trained her with a vibrating collar...something
which I highly recommend. I can't begin to tell you how much joy
Blue Bell and our other dog Bea have brought us.
Human companions: Cheryl and her husband Charlie
Other pets: Bea, a Collie; the cats, Spanky and Sprog

Deaf dogs:Magic & Lucky
Magic is a 5 year old Dalmatian, He is a great loving dog,
loves to go for walks and ride in the car.
Lucky is a 2 year old Dalmatian. She is a great dog. We got
Lucky in Feruary 2000. Her previous owner did not realize she was
deaf. She was with a hearing dog and I guess her other owner thought
she could hear.
Even though it can be tough having a deaf dog, they are still the
greatest. They give all kinds of love.
Human companions: Shawn, Lorie-Ann and Kyle
Other pets: We now have Sasha, a hearing Dalmatian.

Winter |
Town: Dover, New Hampshire
Deaf dog: Winter is now two and a half. He's had surgery for
wobblers twice and seems to be doing well with the help of a veterinary
acupuncturist. He's still the happiest dog I've ever known. He lives
with me and his 3 packmates all looking out for him. He is the 4th
dane in the house and the youngest. The older dogs are usually very
happy with him but they can get testy with him when he plays to rough.
We are just learning to live with and train a deaf dog so we are going
to be looking for lots of help over the next few months. I have been
involved in the rescue of several deaf Danes in the past but this
is the first time I have ever had a deaf dog of my own. This is also
the first puppy I have ever raised on my own.
Human companions: Paul
Other pets: Rajah, 6 yrs, black
dane, Bailey 5 yrs, fawn female dane, McIvor, 4 yrs, merle dane. Everyone
here is a rescue with several passing through every year.

Magic

Gigi
|
Town: Hudson, New Hampshire
Deaf dog: Magic is a great all Black Cocker
Spaniel who has also lost his eyesight at 5 years of age due to
PRA. We purchased him from what we thought was a reputable breeder...not
true. His life evolves around pleasing all us with hugs and cuddles.
He loves sleeping on the ottoman when we're not looking.
Gigi will be coming at 12wks old
on 4/9/05. We chose her from the litter and later found out that
she was deaf and my daughter Abbie decided to take her. We're nervous
yet very anxious to pick her up in Ohio.
Human companions: Steve, Carmen, Lynn(27), Abbie (24), Brian(21)
Other pets: Buster (2 year old Cocker) and Mia (newborn French
Bulldog) who is coming with Gigi for companionship
