Wow, it sounds like you are doing a great job with Miko! What a darling he is. I am so proud that you are willing to take this poor pup on so it can have a good life with you and your pups.

We tried to foster a deaf dalmation pup that was about a year old a couple of years ago. He was a beautiful dog but it didn't work out because he wanted to play with the other dogs so bad but he was too rough and we nor the other dogs could get him to understand that he was actually hurting them. They were all hiding from him and I had a lot of trouble making him understand you don't just pee and poop wherever you wanted. I felt so sorry for him but I felt sorrier for my pups who just didn't understand why he was being so mean to them - I decided that having a deaf dog with four others just wasn't working and had to return him to the shelter.
