Adopt A Dog
My first experience with a deaf dog occurred when I was about 16 years old and my family decided to adopt a dog from a local Humane Society. Because of your support, the thousands of animals who walk through our doors every year find loving homes. Animal shelters usually have puppies, mature dogs and purebreds to select from and will allow people to spend time with a dog before adopting. This solution does not sit well with many animal-lovers and the people who work with animals.
A remarkable number of people who have adopted say that their chosen dog stood out like a sore thumb. A mill, on the other hand, breeds dogs for money. Costs can be high, as a number of dogs require expensive surgical care to rehabilitate injuries like fractures or ligament damage which have ended their careers.
