I don't think she thought anyone would come for her. I am glad we had the opportunity to show her love. Help me spread the word by sharing as she is going to need a home 🐶❤
Love u
What an adorable pup. She wuvs cuddles, no doubt!
Do you have an agent/manager who handles your schedule..if so, I'd love to send him something. Let me know 😊😊
♥love your vids rocky
Poor baby! It's hard enough for them being in a shelter, but that has to be even harder when they're blind AND deaf.
🌿 I have a Blind cat. This is the second one I've had. These animals are Amazing and Loving critters. It's incredible how normally they can live most of the things in their
lives. Don't ever miss the opportunity to Adopt one. You'll never regret it. They show sooo much Love! ❤️ ❤❤
Rocky: "So we're gonna use a lot of touch."
Dog: "SO WE'RE GONNA USE A LOT OF TOUCH!!!"
Spot on! 😂
This is a correct translation 😆👏
😂😅😂, yes!

@rockykanaka there's a short I've watched where someone fostered/adopted one American bull dog puppy (pit bull?) And then a second pit bull puppy, both blind, and one thing she did was put hula hoop on them - attached in some way to their harness - so that they wouldn't bump into walls or whatever.
Get a vibrating collar for her. You can teach her that it means “yes”, and “come here”. I worked with a deaf blind dog and she thrived as soon as we figured out how to communicate with her.
this is BRILLIANT!!
I was just about to say the same thing, add a GPS Tag as well for safety.
"Come here"? Come where tho? How does she figure that out lol
@@kirbycooper9496 smell
@@kirbycooper9496 She can still feel vibrations, tap the floor with your foot, get creative.
I love how immediately friendly and loving she was the second she realized there was a person with her
right?? and I love it when Rocky said "you found me!" and she gets this big smile.
I imagine its quite lonely in her world 😞
I have a loving home. My husband runs a veterinary hospital in Philadelphia. If you can get her to me... we would love Sissy. We have a 7 year old GSD, we also have cats, 4 chickens... and lots of love to give. Hope Sissy gets the best family for her... It could be us... just saying!
i don't know you, but you are wonderful!
God bless!
Please let us know if you get her. You sound ideal! xoxo
There is link in the video description regarding adopting! :)
sending love your way
She needs a "guide dog". I think it would stop her whining and make her feel secure.....
I had a pair of old pugs, one lost her sight. One lost his hearing. They were always close friends, but, as the sensory perception went down, they were inseparable. He did the seeing, she did the hearing.
My girl was the seeing eye dog for MILs blind dog. She took good care of the old boy.
It's very common for deaf dogs to whine, I'm afraid.
They need to find her a best friend, because they would bond and be inseparable. It's awesome watching dogs that love each other play together. She would do great with a big family and other pets to guide her. Lots of hoomans to sniff, boop, and be touched by. ❤
@@Ridiculina why ? because it is kind of heartbreaking like she is searching for something . it does indeed must be scary too not know what is happeing with you and have zero sight and hearing . I hope she finds a guide dog to be by her side
She's blind & deaf. She's gorgeous so sweet. Those people who used her for breeding should go to jail❤
I doubt prison is equal to the torment breed dogs suffer.
Please adopted her soon to a loving person and maybe with another dog for companion.thanks a million if you do. God bless you.
There is no excuse for mistreating these beautiful souls. None.
And if her issues are congenital, it would already have showed up in puppies.
Jail is too generous ...
My dog is deaf and blind. She is still an amazing companion. I could not wish for a better girl. She’s amazing
God bless you. ❤❤❤❤
That broke me in a good way. Im living in a special home with scary people, im disabled and triggered.i want to be treated like this man treated this dog...thanks for the love.
I hope you get to be in a loving & supportive environment soon ! Everyone deserves this decency ♡
Hoping that you will find a safer, more secure place to live. No one should have to fear where they live.
Please call your local DSHS and tell them about your situation. If you are feeling afraid, maybe they can find you a better place to live.
I'm praying for you dear. God is with you.
Amen to all those comments. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if people would love their fellowman the way they love dogs? Shamefully, I hear the same people who say, “I hate people” are the very ones who say how much they love animals. 🙏🏽
I’m a senior citizen and really can not afford to own a dog because of the cost of food and health care. I have found the perfect solution for me…I foster small dogs from my local rescue center. The dogs I foster usually have a health issue or need longer to recover from surgery and I’m their quiet recovery place. My 1st foster was a 10 year old Miniature Pinscher who had heart worms and she was with me five months and recovered and was adopted. Fostering is an excellent way to help your local rescue group and it’s so rewarding.
I love this! Forever fosters also give the animal a safe loving home, while the foster does not have prohibitive expenses to deal with an elderly or chronically ill pet! Perfect *WIN-WIN* situation!
Love this!
You are a doll! Thank you for providing this and advocating for it.
I do emergency fosters. Usually they are with me between 2 weeks to 2 months, no longer coz I do too much traveling. The pure bred dogs get adopted fairly quickly but the mixed breed usually takes longer. My current foster is a 8 months old sweet boy who is extremely loving and sweet. I am always heart broken when they leaves. Cried lots but I gotta let them go no matter how wonderful they are and how much I love them. My job is to heal them physically and mentally with lots of love and attention. Please spare some time to help a life. It is just a few weeks or months but you would have save a life. Respect fosters coz the emotional up and down is torturing, loving them and then letting them go is extremely hard.
Thank you. ❤
Let’s get this beauty a home because no blind dog belongs in a shelter.
I can't imagine the fear of being abandoned deaf and blind. This girl deserves an extra living home to make up for this crap
If I didn't have cancer, I would adopt her now. Someone p!ease help her
Bless you.
I wish you get well soon, I wish you all the best.
Fight and prevail.
Susan my wife and my prayers go out to you. YOU WILL get through this. Stay strong!
My love and prayers go out to you dear Susan. ❤
Bless your heart! Wish the best for you! May you be well
I wish you get well. I also wish I can adopt pets once I leave a toxic and abusive environment. Housing is expensive and most housing and apartment rentals do not allow dogs, including big dogs. I outgrown my parents and their toxic narcissism has done damaged to my health, but the housing crisis has made me overstay and fear for my health so I cannot commit to a pet. Difficult to find a place.
Her people aren’t coming for her. She really needs another animal or person and not be alone. She definitely needs a loving family with attentive hoomans and animals. Sweet, sweet girl.
a cat would help maybe
Rocky, can you advocate for her to have a another dog in her kennel?
Yes, and did I hear you say her littermates are there too? Also the kittens are American Bobtails. They have tails about 4" or a little shorter, and can be talkative. The one thats having a fit is scared, lol. Those are amazing cats.
The kittens don’t look anything like a bobcat.
Don’t give her back to the owner. If she’s running loose, the owner isn’t taking responsibility.
That was the sweetest reaction ever! From total silence, darkness and loneliness to "OMG! It's a people! It's a people!!!" Then her cries when she was sure she was all alone again. Oh, my heart aches for her. Maybe when she's adopted (and can be monitored in it) something like a Thundershirt would help her. She would feel that pressure and maybe not feel so anxious?
I had a deaf/blind Doxie. Never fear having a deaf/ blind dogs. You *easily* can train them with texture and smell. They're never completely deaf. My Doxie could hear when I whistled. I would wake him by blowing by his nose or tapping the floor with my feet. I kept him outside the kitchen by using rugs as the boundary. He was my soul dog and I miss him terribly.
my family's failing to re-train ours from being comfortable with using their excrement (basically marking) inside to return home to their bed area.. it's bad, no amount of walking & outside opportunity ceases their behavior, we don't've a yard, & we know that they'd feel terrible if we gave them up
The poor dog has been treated so badly. Blind deaf and maybe overbred this is crazy. She needs so much love and care. I feel so outraged over how people can be so cruel.
the same happens daily in the meat and dairy industry 😉 there sadly not many people seem to care...
@@Chuarzita Lots of us care a lot about farm animals' welfare🐮🐮🐷🐷🐑🐑🦌🦌
@@Chuarzita I care about them too. I've seen how cruel they are treated as well. It is sad and heartbreaking.
Makes me cry poor baby
You don’t know she’s been badly treated; she’s young, she could easily dig a hole to get under a fence and then wander off.
When my old cat went deaf, he would sleep on/next to me and i would always hum to him. My theory was he would feel the vibrations and know i was communicating with him. He seemed to like it 😊
Yeah the vibrations from your voice is similiar to purring to them
That's super sweet! He almost certainly felt it, wonder if he thought it was like purring.
@@leejeanne487 I didn't read your comment first. You beat me to it :D
I bet he did! I had a 21 year old cat that was deaf and blind, I hummed to her too. ❤
4:21 *Onthat surface there is not much you can do to attract her attention. In a home with wood floors, I imagine that she could use the elephant trick of picking up vibrations through her feet if you thump on the floor. Then she'd know something was up*
I rescued a blind deaf black lab years ago. He was about dead from malnutrition. He ended up being the sweetest smart dog I’ve ever had. . I created a type of sign language by tapping the top of his nose. He was all lab and loved to play fetch. I had to tap him on the nose to let him know the ball was thrown. He’d take off/start out in small circles and spread out until he hit the scent. Most didn’t even know he was handicapped because he knew our property so well. This was unfortunately before everyone had video cameras. His name was marvelous Marvin. I still get emotional telling his story.
So, knowing that her sense of smell is even MORE heightened- can they move the cleaning products and bucket to another area? That is so overpowering and nauseating for her.
Good idea
My husband and I adopted a deaf Dalmatian from the local shelter. She was hours from being put down. We named her Maggie. I swear that girl could read lips. She blessed our lives for 10 years!
Thank you for adoption! 🥰
I had the sweetest deaf Dalmatian named Freckles. We had another Dalmatian named Lady who was her “ears”. That was over 40 years ago! ❤️
@@anonymousl3510 I also had a deaf dalmatian named Dollar , I think it is pretty common for dalmatians to be deaf unfortunately, but they can have a completely normal dog life
I had a doll named Maggie years ago she was a wonderful girl. I still miss her!
I have a blue heeler that is deaf and I know she can read lips!
To whoever is blessed to adopt her, we used textures Eg rugs or the bottom of a broom attached to the wall and scent marks using essential oils for stairs and doorways. It helped give our guy confidence and some independence. Dogs are remarkably resilient.
interesting thanks for that information never knew that!
Thats brilliant ❤
There's also special harnesses with wire or plastic arch frames, that go arround and Infront of the head, so they don't bump into obstacles (until they learn the area and distance arround)
Genius
Please make sure to use oils that aren't harmful. Some can be harmful to dogs and especially cats.
She is very cute. Sissy is a very good name for her. Her whining is heartbreaking. I hope she will be adopted.
We don’t want “her people “ to come for her…they should go to prison. If I didn’t have a rescue dog that can’t be with other dogs, I’d take her. Sigh. Rocky, please take her. You understand her, and she needs you. 🙏💜🙏
That’s how I feel. Sure, a dog can get out and get lost…but I work with people who have had this happen with many of their dogs, and cats. When does it stop being an unfortunate accident and start being irresponsible neglect? Some people just don’t deserve to get their animals back.
I hope Rocky takes her to his rescue place !!!
No we don't. If Rocky can't take her, maybe Lee from Asher House can help. Lee is an amazing man!
Please let her go to your rescue please
Flips Farm is gonna fill up fast with our suggestion of Bean and now Sissie but we can't help wishing these creatures of God all the best!!
Please.
Please !!!
PPPPLLLLLLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
I agree. Please take her home with you. Please. 🙏🏻❤ 🐕
Somebody adopt this sweet girl. She deserves a loving home
I hope someone adopts her she is so loving
I wish I could
If you can get her to Fort Worth, Texas I'll take her. I have to small dogs that are rescued live on 6 acres fenced .
Poor doggie, hear her crying it's so sad to hear.
Rocky needs to contact Lee Asher of the Asher House! He would treat her right!
How did she end up not loved forever.... She's such a loveable dog. What a sweetheart
I love how he disengages his own eyesight to focus on his other senses to connect with her. The way he stares off into space when first meeting her, showed instantly that he was going to her level. Incredible ❤
Dear Sissy, I'm deaf , too - and also visually impaired...so I really feel for you. Hope you'll find a loving home asap ❤ sooo sweet!
I send love & light your way. You are a strong soul ❤
My husband is deaf as well. We had a hearing dog years ago that we personally taught sign language to.
@@user-id6tw3of1x That's so cool! Dogs are so smart.
❤❤
💕💕💕🐕🦺
She may be blind and deaf, but she has love off the charts.
Breaks my heart to see the white dog crying... she wants to get out of there she wants to be home....🥺✝️💜
She found you very quickly. It was the sweet smell of love and affection!
How is it even possible to be blind and deaf and still be this sweet and loving to
Someone you don’t even know. It’s true these animals are way too good for us
I think sometimes they know their only hope is to be very cool and loving. Hell, she could be the second coming of Jesus. I sure wouldn't want to have to answer to my maker if I abused one of his perfect, beautiful creatures.
Agreed!😊

I wonder if she would like a large stuffed toy to cuddle. It must be so frightening to be in a strange place and have no idea what's going on.
It's unconscionable that someone bred a congenitally blind and deaf dog. Thank you for trying to find her a good home.
That's the thing I was thinking, more disabled dogs?
😢
@winkielaroo
> It's unconscionable that someone bred a congenitally blind and deaf dog.
I must have missed the bit where it was said her blindness & deafness were congenital.
Could you help me out and tell me the timestamp for it?
If you can't, because you just made that up, I think you owe everybody an explanation as to why you did that.
@@anonnona8099 Timestamp 11:19 I guess you did miss something.
@@anonnona8099 don’t forget that they assume someone intentionally bred her, just because they assume the worst of people all the time. Accidents happen.
Sobbing. Being highly sensitive is a blessing and a curse somedays. Sitting here watching a video and suddenly I'm broken.
There's way too little empathy in the world so it's nice of you to share some.
Me too but it’s a healing cry
We don’t deserve dogs. What a sweetheart.
Oh how sad they bred her over and over it’s unconscionable. Karma to the persons that allowed this . And how many puppys are deaf and blind and probably dumped. I’m so sorry baby girl.
❤ karma for sure
My thoughts exactly
A very sad situation for her, I hope she has the best life now ❤
My 14 yo female minpin was a rescue who was bred over and over the first 2 years of her life. And when the Humane Society rescued her, there were many others in the same site along with her.
I'm with you 100%
I have a double merle deaf/vision impaired dog who, along with a deaf brother, and blind sister were dumped on a dog rescue, which is where I found him. They came from a breeder who makes a habit of irresponsible breeding and just dumping the disabled dogs onto shelters and rescue groups.
I fostered him, but it was really after only a week or so that I knew in my heart I wouldn't be able to let him go. He's just turned three and living his best life. It's my job to make sure that despite someone treating him like a piece of irrelevant garbage as a baby, he gets to experience as many happy, fun moments, as much love and affection as he can stand, and the security of knowing he's extremely loved and wanted.
Poor Sissy!
You can clearly see her condition. She is very loving, amazing!!! Beautiful girl!
She just wants to play with you Rocky!!
💯
Another trick to know an animal is deaf: Talk in a normal voice around the animal for a while (works best with multiple people) then on a signal, everyone stops talking. Usually an animal will then cock their ears or show some kind of "WTF reaction" (technical term...).
I can't bear the heartbreak I'm feeling for this precious dog.
Only her sense of smell and touch to live in. How much more alone can one be?
We had a blind and deaf malamute. Our dalmatian protected, guided, and comforted her for years.
Just curious, how do you train when they're blind and deaf? I imagine treats and pats and those things like normal but being unable to say "sit" or "no" or whatever. Not that we were ever particularly harsh with telling off our dog when training him, but it was pretty important to be able to.
I love Dalmatians. I’ve always wanted one since I was little. Sounds like you had a very sweet one. Many people told me they were not nice and it always made me sad.
@@julievanderleest Hunting dog meaning that highly energetic + bored is a bad bad combo. As we all know, it's always the dog's fault and never the owner /s
@@asterismos5451 Touch commands, I imagine, since visual and audio commands are useless. With a harness and a lead, dogs can pick up on a lot of body language. A light tap or pressure on the lower back to indicate "sit," a slight pull on the lead for "come/follow," and the like. Some things might require more context for the dog to understand, but you should be able to get the basics across with a little time, patience, and positive reinforcement. Having a second dog to help get the message across would be very helpful, as they can pick up the commands the impaired dog misses and guide them with their bodies and touch... and the comfort to them of having another dog around for companionship is immeasurable.
Sissy may not see or hear what you’re saying or doing, Rocky, but she clearly feels the loving vibes you’re putting out. What a sweet Mama.
Isn't she just ? She's picking straight up on Rocky's healing dog-loving energy. Healing cannot occur without L❤VE. Rocky just has that 'love-frquency' energy. It's SO palpable that it comes through the screen practically, lol. (I've even found myself using some of his techniques on struggling humans with brilliant results. All the dogs just melt into his love, no matter how shut-down or what trauma they're often experiencing. Rocky's energy is always right on point for the needs of each different soul. He has a gift.
Have a great day 😀
THANK YOU for helping her. I have a disabled you dog and a very elderly, blind 14 yr old. They would be destroyed in a shelter environment. This little girl breaks my heart.
This is very beautiful, deeply touching. Thankyou for this. Don't let Kristi Noem anywhere near your home!!!
I had a deaf and blind dog that I adopted (a pug). She learned the house layout in 2 days!
That’s awesome ! ❤
I adopted a 13 year old dog that was deaf, about 90% blind and had a ton of health issues. Sort of a hospice case. She seemed to love the hardware store as the lights were super bright and she could see a little. She was so abused and neglected.😢 I gave her a loving home for 2 years before the cancer started causing lots of seizures. She died being loved.💜
💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
You are amazing! ♥️
God bless you! I bet she waits for u on the other side :)
You deserve a medal for taking on a senior dog and making their twilight years full of happiness and love ❤
Thank you for loving her and giving her two loving, happy years ❤️❤️💕💕💕
What a sweetheart this man is- he IS going to heaven some day.
I’ve had a deaf and blind dog and cat, plus a deaf dog. Once they know how to get around the house and yard, they do great.
Always give guidance as long as they need it in a new environment. Softly blowing on them really works well if you need to wake them up or get their attention gently. Not a good idea to come up from behind and startle them. Once they are comfortable they do great just like any other pet.😊
She's absolutely gorgeous and a totally cuddly girl. Such a clever girl too. Despite her disabilities. She's just as lovable and valuable as a full able dog ❤
YES!! Thank you!!!
I’m not a Dog expert, don’t know how a shelter works but I think Sister would do much better with a Friendly Dog with her in the kennel. Did I hear correctly that Sister had some Brothers or Sisters there too? Maybe one could be with her? I sometimes babysit my Daughter’s Blind MinPin and he does better with my two Dogs than if I put him alone temporarily. He’s a Happy camper with company! My Heart Hurts to hear Sis crying whenever you stopped petting her or giving her treats. Such a Sweetheart of a Dog! If she’s not adopted maybe you could take her into your Rescue so she has a Perfect Home. Sister Deserves a Life of Hugs and Kisses! Sending Love and Prayers from Arizona ♥️🐾🙏🏼🌵
@@imamorninglory I was thinking the same about giving her a kennel-mate from her former home. She probably misses her siblings and would be comforted by a familiar touch and smell.
I had a small blind and eventually deaf dog 13 years. He was 9 when I fostered him. I couldn't let him go back. Imagine, he lived to be over 23 years. Little Stevie taught us so much. He was happy too. I changed the floors so he would know where he was, kept his toys nearby, and other dogs sometime lead him. I spoke to him with my hands and carried him a lot because he liked to be held. So much great love.
He lived that long because he loved you so much
My dog was deaf and seeing impaired, completely blind the last couple years. He was the best dog ever, I would have gladly signed up for 60 more years of caring for that dog.
beautiful dog, I hope they find her a home where she will be cared for, she deserves a lot of love
She looks like a smart and affectionate dog even she has disabilities. I have a blind dog, too and she relies on sniffing and hearing. That dog is deserving a good home. ❤
Agree! Thank you
This beautiful dog deserves a loving forever home. Poor baby, her crying is so heartbreaking. She is still trusting of people despite her situation. I pray she will get adopted into a loving forever home. 🙏🏽🥰🐕
Dogs in my book are the greatest of all time. They are so loving, loyal and so forgiving. It crushes my heart that so many animals- dogs especially, are neglected and abused.. it boils my blood.
Ppl who abuse animals are punks! Straight scumbags. Thank you for being a wonderful, dedicated advocate for them. I pray she finds her forever home. Sending prayers and much love. 🙏🐶🫶
Awe that dog was so happy to finally have someone who knows what’s going on and is keeping her safe.
Definitely domesticated kittens there! The ears are the dead giveaway - the points on bobcats looks like a black rose thorn sticking up from the ear, and the back edge of the ear is rimmed with black. Those scared babies have normal kitten ears. Things that are harder to tell because there’s more overlap with domestic cats - if these were bobcats, the tail would be shorter, the jaw/jowl more prominent, and they’d have spots instead of stripes.
Sissy is such a sweetheart. Hoping there’s updates soon!
Thanks, I was stumped as to where they are supposed to look like bobcats! 😅
We adopted a blind and deaf elderly dog, due to "his person" died and no one in that family wanted the dog. He learned our house floor plan and could follow my footsteps if I stomped. We took him on walks, but also needed puppy pads indoors. He lived a little less than a year and was loved every day.
Thank you :)
Compassionate people like u are sadly a rarity…….. all dogs go to
heaven, no doubt. But it’s a better transition for them when loved on until the end. I promise, u will be rewarded somehow and someway for ur kindness to the less fortunate……….
Such a loveable cutie 🥺 🥰 I wanna hug her!!!
Sweet , sweet girl ,whose clearly been through so much in her short life . I pray someone gives her a good home and the love, care and life she deserves 🙏💗
Those beautiful tabby kittens needs somewhere to hide , they are terrified.
She feels the vibration on the floor.
Yes!
Contact Blind Dog Rescue Alliance. I’ve fostered for them. They are nationwide. Sissy!
I love her instant happiness when she noticed there was a person with her, she’s so lovely and I really hope she’s found or will find a home soon
Yes I have a blind dog and death she's been blind for almost a year. I'm going to take her this year to get her eyes done. You're doing a great job God bless you
So sad for that dog. 3yrs old and blind and deaf. She deserves a home with family who would good care of her.
Bobcat kittens have more of a growl meow sound.
Those are stray kittens that are scared. Beautiful Blind deaf dog. My parents had a dalmatian who was deaf. Lived to be 12 years old. Miss her. Such a good doggo.
Deaf dogs feel by vibration. She can feel you snapping by her ear or stomping.
Definitely not Bobcats!
They don't look like bobcat kittens either. Bobcat kittens have ear tufts and bobbed tails. No sure why they thought those were bobcats. Maybe it was some kind of joke that didn't land...
My heart melted for this sweetheart, be the people these fluffy angels need if you get the opportunity to care for one, work or not, these fluffballs have feelings as well and are only with us a finite time compared to our often long lifespans.
Bless her you can see that she has tonnes of love to give and I agree with another comment vibration is the key to communicating with her as well as smell
The best thing for this dog would be an adoption by someone that already has a dog without disabilities that would be her best friend and her “eyes and ears” for her.
She has so much love in her💕🦴
My heart melted when you did the "Scoop" Rocky , she is so sweet and loving ❤️ please take her with you
She seemed to hear faintly! What a sweetheart! A great dog! I love her! Once they get used to a home they maneuver just fine!
I thought the same thing. Her left ear might be not fully deaf. But she might be reacting with her other senses.
She doesn't know she's blind/deaf. She only knows what she smells, tastes, and feels. I'd surmise that it needs to be known whether or not she knows what stairs are and how to negotiate them. Sweet girl. A gentle companion animal would really benefit her as well.
This is a dog that breaks my heart . I have had a 15 year old deaf and a 13 year old blind dog but imagine a dog that is both deaf and blind being in a shelter .. poor baby i hope she gets a good home
Once she figured out someone was there to love on her she was all about the lovins. I love dogs that are blind and deaf, there’s just something about them…and they are so smart, ohhh my goodness. This beautiful girl, she’s an angel, an absolute precious, sweet, beautiful angel. I’d take this lovely girl in a heartbeat. Oh my goodness, I just fell in love with her and just want to hug her and love her. Ohh, Rocky, this girl, this angel, my heart swells for her. ❤️😘🤟
please someone go get her 😭
We adopted a senior deaf dog several years ago. She broke my heart-found wandering the streets, someone had clearly dumped her. Bless the shelter (Escondido Humane Society in So. Cal) for saving her and for her foster mom. I still miss her so many years later. 2 of our 3 dogs (all single adoptions over 20 years) were seniors who’d been abandoned probably due to their age. Seniors are THE BEST dogs ever! Please save a senior life-yes, you will not have them as long as puppies or young dogs, but they know they’ve been saved and savor their last years in love. They are SPECIAL. You will have no regrets-be a hero. Miss you, my lovely Millie Moo! ❤
Well said 🫶🏻
I already commented it on another comment but my dog became blind and deaf when he was 11 years old and he was so incredibly sweet then and loved cuddling. Senior dogs really are so special and loving.

She's used to being surrounded with other dogs, her siblings. Not only blind and deaf but suddenly deprived of the contact with other dogs that she's used to. Unbearably sad situation. She's so super sweet and loving, she needs loads of physical contact so I hope she's adopted soon, preferably by a family with another dog.
Her temperament is lovely. She's going to be easy and a joy to care for despite her disabilities.
She is so sweet!!!! Man I love her, she’s adorable
My first foster dog was a 4-year old blind dog found running on the highway. My third foster was a 7 month old, totally deaf and blind who came from a shelter (all the siblings were deaf he was the only one deaf and blind.) He was fearless, ran until he hit the wall or his whiskers felt something. He had the perimeter of the yard figured out in just a couple of hours. They both got amazing homes and are living their best life.
Bless you
What an encouraging post. Thx!
Her crying is breaking my heart😢
❤
Hope this girl gets a forever home. I see a few people in the comments who would love to have her but i truly hope she gets a loving family soon.
Our deaf dog also senses vibration from the floor. He can tell if someone is walking behind him if it's on a wood floor or senses the door opening / closing. He can't hear it but he can feel it if he's on the floor.
She can use her nose and she can feel the vibrations in the floor when you walk to her.
😮 blind and deaf? She realy needed this session with you so she knows you're there for her to have a good time
I think you are right. Thank you 🤙
Bats aren't blind. They see well with their echolocation, and poorly with their eyes. Your work is wonderful! ❤❤❤
Sissy doesn't know any difference because she was born that way. She doesn't know that this isn't the way things aren't suppose to be.
Bless her heart for the 3 years that she has had and that she's so happy.
I pray that someone soon will have a loving heart, like Sissy, and give her the best home ever.
Good luck to you Sissy and to your new owners.
She was so happy to find you!! Melted my heart!!
Aww how can no one want such a love bug!? She’s crying for love and attention and affection. She deserves it all. Horrible to abandon a deaf and blind dog 😢
I hope she gets a good home. I’d gladly accept her if she does not have a home. I have a very active dog that could be a good guide. I live in Colorado.
I recused a kitty who was deaf. She was a Siamese mix and was my best bud for 14 years. Still heart-broken when she passed 2 years ago. Prayers for Sissy. I hope she goes to a wonderful home because she absolutely deserves it.
I adopted a blind Bull Mastiff.He was the most beautiful and gentle giant ever.😊
Imagine how happy she was to have Rocky come and snuggle her and keep her company. She wasn’t alone anymore.
Someone is going to be very blessed having her 🥰♥️
This poor dog is whimpering because she had a hard life. My heart goes out to this poor animal. She just needs love. It’s a shame. This would be a great pet to a loving owner. If I didn’t have 2 dogs I’d love to take this dog. I love dogs and this animal is so sweet. I hope she gets a good home real soon! ❤
I live in Australia, otherwise I would adopt her in a heartbeat. Having worked with people who have dual sensory impairments, she would have the best life with my family. She is so precious xxx
I hope she's adopted by a loving and experienced family to love her and train her to better adapt to her condition so she has a good life.
This made me cry so hard. Those whines were her acknowledgment of her knowing someone’s acknowledged her 😭😭😭 looks like she’s been bred from too. Poor girl. I hope she gets the most amazing home. I’d have her but I’m in the UK 😭😭😭
Had a deaf cattle dog and she was so smart. She knew sign language (and chose when to ignore it by looking away on purpose hahah)
also adopted a deaf cat from the shelter as a kid as i knew id look after him better than most. Special needs animals have their quirks and you might have to try harder to keep them safe and happy but they're so worth it because they can make you smile and have so much love to give.
