Is it due to lack of understanding on our part, or perhaps we don’t have the imagination or patience to train them?
Hear, Hear! – A Guide to Training the Deaf DogHear Hear! goes through training a deaf dog step-by-step. It covers basic training that most pet dog owners require, including teaching the dog to sit, lay down, stand, walk nicely on a lead, stay, and to come back when ‘called’. It also covers important subjects like socialisation and suggests ways of overcoming some of the most common unwanted behaviour, like jumping up, barking and preventing your dog becoming destructive when left on its own. The moral issues of finding a home for a deaf dog are also discussed.For details of how to purchase the book in the UK and around the world, please look at the book shop.
