Queensland Deaf Dogs

Star	Town: Ipswich, Queensland Deaf dog: Star is a 2 year old Mini Foxie. I got Star from a pet shop at Redbank when we had to put our other Foxie down because of age. She has such long legs and was so cute, she went to puppy school and is very smart. It is hard with her being deaf because she has special needs but most people don't even know she is deaf unless we tell them. She is a great little dog and much loved by me and my kids. Human companions: Michelle, Amber, Jade and Andrew Dor Other pets: Dillan, a Lab Email: michelled63@optusnet.com.au
Kimba	Town: Kenilworth, Queensland Deaf dog: Kimba is a 5 and 1/2 year old Boxer. She is very smart and always happy. You wouldn't even know that she is deaf ! The only drawback is that she can "conveniently" ignore hand signals. Human companions: Gerri Kairuz Email: witchypoo71@hotmail.com

Sheba Muzby	Town: Townsville, Queensland Deaf dog: "Hi, please meet Sheba and Muzby. They are both Deaf! I am an Auslan Interpreter, and my wife is Deaf. So it is only logic that we adopted Deaf dogs! Sheba is a Australian Catte Dog (Or Blue Heeler) , she is about 10 years old (born about 1996). We forgot when we had him exactly. The breeder gave him the name of 'Freckles', but we felt Sheba was more suited. Muzby is an Australian Koolie (or German Coolie, Australian Coolie) and is born in April 2005. Originally his name was Tennessee, but that was way too 'posh' for our liking. We chose the name 'Muzby', because "we must be (Muzby) crazy to get another Deaf dog!" He is a REAL sheepdog, he rounds up the cats, sticks, even when he plays with other dogs, he likes to round them up! Human companions: Antony Daamen and his wife Terry Other pets: We have also 2 (hearing) cats, and tropical fish.
