Ohio Deaf Dogs



<< Back to OH map  

Carter
Town: Grove City, Ohio
Deaf dog: Carter is a 3 year old English Setter. I adopted Carter from ACES (Another Chance for English Setters). Carter and his sister were turned into ACES as young pups when their breeder discovered they were deaf. I fell madly in love with the little terror when I saw his picture on the ACES website (www.englishsetterrescue.org) and he's changed my life. He's spirited, stubborn, loving, gentle, and in between shouts of exasperation (that he can't hear) he makes me laugh hysterically. He adores vanilla ice cream, Robins, madly scampering Squirrels, and snoring on my shoulder. Carter has an incredible personality and I treasure every day that I get to spend with him!
Human companions: Danica Barreau
Other pets: I have a four year old Golden Retriever

Matthew
Matthew
Town: Delaware, Ohio
Deaf dog: Matthew is a 7 1/2 month old German Shorthaired Pointer. His family says "Matthew is a rescue puppy who I adopted from German Shorthaired Pointer Rescue of WI. I have adopted from them in the past so they were aware of what type of environment he would be living in. I have a very active and very loving home. I have 4 hearing dogs besides Matthew.
He doesn't think of himself as being deaf. He runs and romps around the backyard with the others and has a wonderful time. Why tell him that he's different?
I am in the process of teaching him basic obedience commands and am going to enter an obedience class where the instructor has experience with deaf dogs. I teach and participate in agility classes and hope to someday get him involved in that. He loves doing different activities and he is not afraid to try new things.
He has quickly won our hearts and become a very solid member of our family. He is dearly loved by my daughter, me, and the other dogs. We think of Matthew as a gift."

Camera Shy
Town: Sunbury, Ohio
Deaf dog: Freckles is a 4 year old Australian Cattle Dog. "Freckles is absolutely fantastic! Her mother had a bladder infection while she was pregnant and, even though we treated the infection, the bacteria passed through the placenta into some of the pups. All were born able to hear but 3 eventually lost most of their hearing from the infection. Freckles can hear very high pitched noises (she certainly knows the ice cream truck bells!) and very low noises (I drive a diesel truck and she knows immediately when I start up our very long lane). Deafness has nothing to do with intelligence!! She is quick to learn, loves to travel, is super about "checking in" when off her leash, and loves everyone that she meets. She has to be one of the happiest dogs I have ever known. I cannot imagine my life without her!!"
