Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is a national charity that train Hearing Dogs to alert deaf people to everyday sounds and danger signals in their home, work place, and in public buildings.
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People was launched in 1982, at Crufts dog show.
- Hearing Dogs are provided to deaf people at no charge.
- Hearing Dogs wear burgundy jackets and lead slips, helping others to recognise an otherwise largely invisible disability.
- Each dog is trained to the specific needs of the deaf individual they have been matched to, creating a life-changing partnership.
- The life-changing benefits of a Hearing Dog are so far-reaching that they currently have a waiting list of people who could benefit enormously.
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People have created over 1,600 life-changing partnerships between deaf people and Hearing Dogs. However, demand is growing and it is vital they train more puppies to meet this need.
