Deaf Horse Used as a Model

Deaf Animal Row A wonderful article on how Cali, the deaf horse, have contributed to the understanding of disabilities and how they can function equally if allowed and given the opportunity.

Mistaken Identity Turns Deaf Dog Unwanted

Deaf Animal Row A English Bulldog is in middle of controversy between the owner and breeder. The dog is suddenly unwanted because it is deaf. In the article, it states, "... the dog was healthy when sold." Many deaf dogs are healthy to begin with and their deafness often go undetected by many people, especially an amateur breeder.

Toys Accessible for Deaf Cats and Dogs

Deaf Animal Row The thought of toys that would be accessible for deaf dogs/cats have not crossed my mind until I adopted 2 deaf dogs.

At night time, they couldn't hear the bounce of a ball to trace it and go after it or play with it. What I found and bought at th...

Vlog: Blind Dog and Deaf-Blind Dog Plays Together!

Deaf Animal Row Tears welled up in my eyes as I watched this video of a deaf-blind dog, Baron, and blind dog, Widget. It is fascinating to observe how Baron relies on touch to respond and sometimes Widget touches with its nose or paw to get the blind-deaf dog´s attention. When it doesn´t do that and barks instead, Baron wasn´t responsive. Widget appears not to realize Baron was deaf. [...]
