Bella was born deaf and will need a family who is committed to using positive reinforcement training to help her communicate with her new family using hand signals or touch cues. She is looking for an indoor home where she can be inside with her family, and will need someone committed to keeping her on-leash in areas that are not enclosed. Have questions about deaf dogs? Our team is here to help! Deaf dogs are much like hearing dogs, other than a few small differences and our team is happy to help you smoothly transition to adding a hearing impaired pet to your family. For more information about Bella or adopting a deaf dog, email us at adopt@hihs.org
Here is what my friends at Hawaii Island Humane Society have to say about me:
- When meeting new people I am friendly and curious!
- I am goofy, cuddly, and very smart!
- I have positive experiences being playful and polite when meeting new dogs
- I love curling up in a dog bed (or a lap!)
- I enjoy chewing on my benebone or playing with other toys.
- I am food motivated and take treats very gently, and would love to learn more through positive reinforcement training.
