Was wondering where and how and if it would be possible to get my dog to be certified as a service dog for deaf/hoh? Shes a 3 year old collie and already alerts me to certain things if something isnt right. Hence loud noises or knocking she'll either wake me up or come and lay under my feet where ever im at. Would it be possible to get her certified as a service dog? What type of training or school would she have to go to if any at all? Just what and how do i need to do?
I have heard of some people training their own dog to be a hearing dog. I got my from NEADS . Maybe if call some place that train dogs to be hearing dog they would help . Have you tried calling the Lion Club or whatever club you have and see if they could help you the cost of training your dog? I think it would really cool to train your pet to be a hearing dog! I would had love to had done that! You both already have a bound with one another,and having your pet as a hearing dog will really bring you both closer to one another!
I think it is a beautiful idea!
