*bounces*
It's very rare to find someone as informed and educated as you are on this topic. I own a grooming shop and boarding kennel and so many of my clients are so uneducated about ethical breeding that I think only a very very small percent of my client have ever had the joy of owning a healthy...
Hi Everyone!
My sweet fuzzball, a 2 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Wyatt Earp, has a favor to ask you! He is entered in a photo contest...the prize is a really neat art print of his cute mug for his adoring owner to hang in her grooming shop. His sisters won last year, and he's feeling...
I don't have issues with people realizing I'm deaf by the orange cape. That's the point of it. I have never had any desire to "hide" my disability. If people stare....that's their issue, not mine :)
Wyatt is a working dog, but when he isn't working, he is a pet. I treat him like a pet. I...
umm..
Did you read anything I said in my reply? I said they don't have to be certified. I said I trained my own hearing dog. I didn't "insist" anything, I gave some very basic information...LOL.
My dog has a vest. He is also certified because I believe in giving the opportunity to...
Err, onions are toxic to dogs you know. Watch her closely, if she starts having the runs or vomiting, you need to get her to the vet ASAP.
Chocolate, grapes, macadamia nuts are also toxic to dogs
I have 3 Great Danes and a corgi (who is my hearing assistance dog).
Great Danes are WONDERFUL dogs, but not for everyone. They are not outside dogs under ANY circumstances, and they require training, period. They are a lot of dog and if you don't like having a dog that needs to be by you...
Were you talking to me? I don't need to learn to sign, I communicate just fine without it...my lipreading is excellent, as is my speech. Just my hearing sucks LOL.
Besides, no one around here teaches it and I'm not good at learning something like that from a book or video. I prefer human...
Why is signing a criteria of being "deaf"? I choose to lipread over signing since my speech is good, and it's a heck of a lot easier to communicate (IMO) with lipreading and speech than signing, so I don't sign. It doesn't make me any more or less deaf than any of you that sign. I find this...
I have no clue what my decible loss is, and I've been deaf since I was really little LOL.
I don't even really know my percents very well. I really don't care. What does it matter? It's like asking someone "how much do you weigh"? Why on earth would anyone want to know that, or care...
I own a business, I need to know when someone walks in the door. I would position the sensors to activate when someone walks through the door, like most businesses have a bell or a something that goes off when the door is opened. I need something like that, only that will visually alert me...
I have been desperately looking for a motion activated visual alert system for my business, and all I can find are doorbell and knock sensors, which I don't want and can't use.
Basically, I need something that, when the door to my business is open a light will flash in two different rooms...
I don't think it's too big of a deal at all deafdyke, so I don't think you need to defend yourself. My post was just meant to point out that there are other words that could be less potentially harmful to use, and lower the risk of offending anyone.
I remember one time I posted on a...
