Praise for Living With A Deaf Dog
I call it the Deaf Dog Bible. I have recommended it to deaf dog groups in America, Canada and the world for at least 15 years.
Liz Grewal, Deaf Dog Owner
As shelters begin to allow animals with deafness and other disabilities to go up for adoption, this book has proven to be an invaluable tool when raining and communicating with deaf dogs.
Tracie Pfielfle, Central Nebraska Humane Society
Good Communication methods and training methods are presented so that the new owner can successfully get past the frustrations and move into an owner-pet relationship that is rewarding and mutually beneficial.
George M. Strain, Ph.D., Comparative Biomedical Sciences School of Veterinary Medicine, Louisiana State University

Living with a deaf dog
The book has not been proofread sufficiently. There are a few grammar and spelling mistakes. I would have liked more examples and advice

Insightful Resource
Having been involved with and training deaf dogs since 1993, I had the privilege of meeting Susan Cope Becker when she contacted me on the Internet so many years ago. Her talented writing abilities, research knowledge, and in-depth resources bring a world of information to families who have adopted, or are considering adopting, a deaf dog and need assistance. Boundaries of deafness are broken with this valuable handbook and the world of silence is no longer stifled for our precious, deaf pups.
