Rehomed Deaf Dog Is Certain She’s Going Back To The Shelter Once Again

In the United States, 5–10% of canines are deaf. Some dogs become deaf as they age, while others are born without hearing. A cochleosaccular gene mutation is commonly the cause of hereditary deafness. Dogs with white coats and blue eyes are more likely to have this type of deafness.

Pit bull named Blu has piercing blue eyes and a white coat. Blu is deaf.

She remained unvisited day after day in an animal shelter.

Luckily, business colleagues Mark and Sean were looking to adopt a deaf dog in the San Francisco area. Two were located at Family Dog Rescue. Blu was one of them.

She was vibrant and full of life when Mark and Sean first met her at the shelter. Mark informed GeoBeats Animals that “she took an immediate strong connection to Sean and the rest is pretty much history.”

Blu’s first owners got in touch with them to let them know he had been living with them for six years. Blu was put in a shelter when they were forced to move into a rental home that forbade pit bulls.

One of the guests that stayed in the refuge the longest was Blu.

One of the reasons it took her some time to feel comfortable around her new dads was that she had been alone for a long time.

Blu was unsure about their intentions for her and whether they intended to send her back to the shelter.

“In fact, she was afraid on the first car ride we brought her on to the beach, which was a few days after we bought her.

” Mark said, “She was just shaking in the back.

According to Mark and Sean, Blu’s personality expanded as she felt more at ease around them.

Three years later, Blu still enjoys traveling in cars after receiving lots of love and attention.

Blu was made aware of Mark and Sean’s love and yearning.

They and Blu have grown so close that they have their own unique communication style

Blu can determine where they’re going by watching her father’s movements, and she even sniffs their feet while out on a stroll.

She is probably my spirit animal, I suppose. I can sense when she’s tense, happy, or depressed. Sean said, “We just read each other pretty well.

Blu recognizes that the wiggles on Mark and Sean’s fingers are signs that she is doing okay. Sean’s stern gaze tells her to calm down.

Additionally, they worked with a trainer to teach Blu stress-relieving techniques like stretching.

The fact that Blu is deaf has no effect on how she lives her life or interacts with her new owners.

According to Mark, it only affects Blu’s ability to build relationships with other canines.

It’s beautiful to see how much Blu means to Mark and Sean.

The reciprocity of the emotion is also obvious. Blu seems to be comfortable with her new family, happy, and healthy. We are ecstatic that Blu has found a place to call her new dads home.

Heartwarming Rescue: Heroic Efforts to Save an Elderly Canine Stranded on an Ice Floe in the Freezing River for Hours

“From Frigid Waters to a Warm Home: Lucy’s Remarkable Rescue and Heartwarming Reunion”

The initial days in a new home can be quite overwhelming for a rescue dog, often leading them to attempt to run away. Such was the case with Lucy, a recently adopted Labradoodle who managed to slip away from her new owner during a walk. Fortunately, locating Lucy didn’t take long, but bringing her back home proved to be a challenging task.

To everyone’s surprise, Lucy ended up stranded on a large piece of ice in the icy waters of the Detroit River. It remains a mystery how she got there, but there she was, clinging to the drifting ice with frigid water flowing around her. The situation was dire, with the risk of hypothermia looming if she remained on the ice much longer. Responding swiftly to the distress call, a team of Wyandotte police officers, firefighters, and animal control officers arrived to lend a hand.

Upon arrival, they found Lucy, trembling and drenched, lying on the ice. Determined to save her, they managed to maneuver the ice chunk closer to the riverbank. A firefighter bravely stood on a slippery, submerged ladder while his colleagues provided essential support by holding onto him with a rope.

“The poor pooch somehow managed to climb onto a chunk of ice but it was drifting away in the river while the dog was freezing,” the police department recounted.

During the daring rescue operation, one firefighter held a ladder against a nearby dock, while another descended it into the freezing water. With the help of a tool called a catchpole, they gently looped it around Lucy’s neck, carefully pulling her towards the ladder. Although the terrified pup had to endure a few seconds in the icy water, the firefighter held her securely in his arms.

Wyandotte Assistant Fire Chief Tom Lyon later described the heartwarming outcome, saying, “It had such a happy outcome. She just had those big brown eyes, and she couldn’t talk, but she probably was just so grateful.”

Lucy was promptly warmed up, and her worried owner was overjoyed to be reunited with her. After a thorough examination by a veterinarian, Lucy received a clean bill of health.

It’s safe to say that Lucy will be spending her days cozily wrapped in a blanket, basking in the warmth of her new home with her loving family.
