Now why would a vet say put the pup to sleep.. Such a Idiot.. Dalmations are known to be born deaf.. I have a deaf cat & she does just fine.. You can also go to handicapppets.com & list the baby in the deaf section.. Good Luck with adopting this baby out..

I would not adopt out this pup to just 'anyone' you can find. Make sure they have experience first. They breeder should have had experience with deaf dogs since dalmatians are prone to being deaf. Who cares if the pup is deaf?? That makes them more special.. They just need to be extra responsible and do special training. I don't have a deaf dog, but we are working with a deaf pup at the shelter and she is in foster care the LAST thing we would do is euthanize her.. She loves life and is very smart and very sweet. Why can't this pup just enjoy life? It's not right to kill off a deaf dog because it's deaf. That vet is I am sorry but idiotic for them to suggest putting it down!

The only difference between a deaf pup and a hearing pup is the way you communicate ASL is the method of choice for most, although I don't know it because my deaf is blind as well. Touch is his preferred method. I find these pups are velcro dogs, and I just got my third deafie on the rescue railroad. You must have a fenced yard or only walk on lead. You can develop different touches or signals for different things. Gabriel is: touch on nose is sit,pat on chest is down, touch on the button on top of his head and he stands on his hind legs. We have a lot of resources available for you and I recommend www.ddeaf.org as well as www.amazingaussies.com for valuable tips. Doesn't matter the breed, the deafness is handled the same.
If I can do it, anyone can!
Lotsa Spots!
OH geeze. I would love another dalmatian pup... My poor Honda is not doing well. But I don't think my landlord would allow it. Aww puppy.
