Hedraian
Dragonstones Hedraianthera Ice
DOB: 21-2-21   Bilaterally deaf, Obligative clear of PRA-prcd & PLL

So our journey training a deaf dog has begun. 
He knows that a thumbs up means he has done the right thing. Clapping hands mean he is a good boy.
With just these hand signals he is at the same level of training as his hearing siblings that are being trained with a clicker.

Out and about
Now that he is old enough to walk further we have started doing short mountain walks. He has also been getting out to Search & Rescue training and visiting clients gardens. At four months he now has his innoculations in place and can start really seeing the world.
