My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This dog's fosterhome is located in: ****Berlin, New Jersey****Looking for Special? Looking for Amazing? Go no further. This is Chandler. He is approximately 7-8 years old and it has been discovered that Chandler is deaf. This darling boy is so smart, so playful, so loving and so well-adjusted that neither shelter nor his foster parents realized he was deaf right away. He was found as a stray and did have an injury to the back of his neck when brought into the shelter that has since healed, but with his personality and ability to live life 'normally' like any other dog suggests that he may have been deaf and had some great people working with him before he got lost. Nonetheless, he will require a special family that realizes that some things are a little different with him - like using hand commands and touch to reward and discipline. He will also need a securely fenced yard as we do not want him to wander off again. Otherwise, you will find that this 18 pound, slightly underweight boy is just oozing with joy and love. Chandler is crate trained and learned a doggie door routine in his fosterhome and is also fantastic on leash. He loves to play, he loves to cuddle, he just ... loves. He has done great with all the dogs he's encountered as well as children ages 3 and up. Open your heart to a special gentleman who deserves all of the good things life has to offer.
