A friend of mine is considering adopting a deaf Boxer, and she wants to do some research on living with/training a deaf dog before she makes her decision. She already has a hearing Boxer in the home and the two dogs have been introduced and they get along wonderfully.

I was wondering if either of you have any resources/websites I could forward along to her, where she can get some helpful info. I figured if anyone could help me out it would be you two :wink:

Thanks in advance! :D

Looks like all the links are covered. I just wanted to say how happy I am that your friend is giving a deaf dog a chance at a loving home. Any adopted dog is wonderful news, but deaf or blind or otherwise 'imperfect' dogs don't get as many chances. Great news.
