deaf dog sign language

Great story! It looks like a French Bulldog/Pitbull cross. It also looks really happy. :)
 
Casey too, usually.

The first poodle I ever had, Bounder, responded immediately to hand and arm signals even if he was a great distance away from me, across the training field, for instance. He was the dog who convinced us we would never have anything but poodles again, he was so smart and so quick to learn anything at all.

About this lady - funny that she said she can't walk the dog because he bites the leash, but the other woman, the volunteer dog-walker, says Snowy was one of the dogs she looked after, so I'm assuming SHE walked Snowy!

The new owner could probably teach Snowy to behave on the leash if she really wanted to. But sounds like she's given him a good life, anyway.
 
I have read somewhere that even dogs that can hear, respond to sign language better than voice commands.
 
That's exactly what "whatdidyousay" and I just said.

Also, think of herding dogs, like Border Collies. They respond to both hand signals and whistles from a great distance away.

I wouldn't say "better" than voice commands, but equally as fast, sometimes faster. Today we had the dogs with us out and about, and walked into a history exhibit. The dogs were allowed in there with us. I didn't want to disturb other people giving commands to my dog, so as we walked from exhibit to exhibit, I just gave him the hand signal to "sit," and he always "sat" in a flash and waited patiently until I signaled "OK," to move on.

It's lovely to have a smart, well-trained dog. Especially when dogs are allowed inside public buildings, I always want to make sure that mine are tight by my side and not annoying anyone else.
