Dodger is only eight months old. This baby is deaf. He lived with an elderly couple in the south who advertised him as "free to a good home" on craigslist. For Pet's Sake Animal Rescue in TN took him (intake date 1/14/13) in and shipped him to Social Tees Rescue in NYC. Social Tees Rescue called SNORT because they don't keep dogs in foster homes very long and didn't feel comfortable adopting him out. SNORT found a foster home for him but realized that he needed a home familiar with deaf babies.
Janice and Ray Boyer with NEBTR agreed to foster Dodger. Thanks to the Boyers for providing their love and expertise for this special boy. He will be in the most caring hands with them and with their experience with deaf dogs he will blossom with their guidance. He will also have a deaf foster brother in Bubba. According to Janice, the two already like to bark at each other.
This is another example of rescues working together. Thanks to all for the great cooperation and communication.
