Town: Akron, Ohio
Deaf dog: Maggie is a two year old Jack Russell Terrier. She came to her home from a foster home in New Hampshire via the Buckeye Region Jack Russell Rescue.

She is truly a smart dog, and has the heart of an angel. She sleeps next to her mom like a teddy bear every night, and sometimes goes to work with her..

Deaf dog: Henry is a Lab/Hound mix who is almost 2 years old. His family says "When I picked Henry out at the shelter I got him from, he was just sitting (very still) in his kennel looking at all the people and puppies. He looked so mellow and thoughtful so I grabbed him immediately and I'm very glad I did. I didn't realize he was deaf until he was 6 months old (I was beginning to wonder why he didn't answer to his name!). Henry's still a bit unsocialized and scared of strangers but we are working very hard to overcome that. But I love him so much. He is so cute he makes you want to cry. He's such a great cuddler; loves hugs and kisses. And he is still very mellow and thoughtful.
Human companions: Beth Elder aand her roommate Meredith

We've bought him hundreds of toys but he prefers a carboard box and is obsessed with shadows."

Deaf dog: Zoey is a 7 month old Jack Russell Terrier. "Zoey is a very adorable, sweet and stubborn 7 month old broken coat Jack Russell Terrier. We bought her at a kennel in a nearby town. We did not know she was deaf until 2 months after we got her. She sleeps in our bed and loves to tunnel under the covers. Trouble is she wakes up through out the night barking at nothing. She is like a child in her terrible twos. Always looking to see what she can get in trouble with. When she finds something she knows she shouldn't have she darts under my bed with the item never to be seen again. She has been quite a challenge for us so far but she has definitely won the hearts of everyone in our family. Previously owning a JRT we knew that she would be a challenge but we never expected the added challenge of her being deaf."
Human companions: David, Judy, Jared, and Courtney Lockshaw

Pig
Pig
Town: Coolville, Ohio
Deaf dog: Pig is a 2 year old Great Dane. "This is Just Lil' Piggly Wiggly. He is my baby! His only concern in life is how much closer can he get to the humans in his life. He shares his home with his momma and sister dane (they can both hear) as well as a basset, a cocker spaniel, and a weenie dog. Pig has learned some hand signals and is very smart. He loves to go camping with us as well as going for car rides and walks. The house would seem empty without him. One of his latest pranks is to go get dirty socks off the floor and put them in the laundry basket. He's such a smart boy!"
Human companions: Clay, Marilyn and Larry
Other pets: Cocker Spaniel, Basset Hound, Weenie dog, 7 cats, a horse and a cow.
