 Georgia |
Town: Quarryville,Pennsylvania Deaf dogs: Georgia is a 2 year old Tibetan Terrier. She is a little treasure. She comes from a friend who raises Tibetans and wanted Georgia to have a home where her deafness would be understood and she would be happy. She came to us on Thanksgiving morning and we are very thankful for her. She is so full of love and knows many signs. No one would ever know that she is deaf. I would recommend a deaf dog to anyone that is considering one. They have so much love to give and outside of the fact that you can never leave them off lead, they are just like a normal dog. Human companions: Ielena Bussard and husband Other pets: A Tibetan named Megan (who will go find Georgia when asked, and nudge her till she comes!) and two Keeshonden named Lance and Falcore (who became deaf in his old age - Falcore went to the Bridge in May of 2001, and is very deeply missed).

Town: York, Pennsylvania Deaf dog: Rhett is a 6 year old Boston Terrier. His family says "Rhett was found at a kennel, days before he was to be put to sleep. Because he was deaf and hyper the people at the kennel assumed that no one would want him. Rhett was 10 months old and had spent most of his life in a cage. When I got him he had no trust in humans. He would cower in a corner if any one approached him. I know that he had been abused at some point because he would snapped at anyone who didn't slowly go up to him and pet him on his back (no other area could be touched). I am amazed at how different he is now, with complete trust in people." Human companions: Jennifer Wiley Other pets: Boston terriers: Rosebud, Scarlett, Grinch, Sweetpea. Lab mix: Uncle Fester Email: scarlett@mybostons.net |

How anyone could ever think of putting these dogs to sleep is just unbelievable to me. Skamp loves to be near us all the time. He has really become attached to my dad, he sleeps on the couch with him all the time. Skamp tries to play with our two Shelties that he thinks are the "big" dogs of the house. He is a very happy dog who has learned tons of signs (especially go for a ride). We are all so happy we got Skamp." Human companions: Dani Klebacha, her parents, Anne & Chuck, and her brother Andy.
