Bull Terrier in New Orleans, LA


DAISY

I really need a foster or permanent home asap. This pet was dropped off at a vet's clinic & the owner was going to have this very very sweet dog euthanized because she just does not want to be bothered with her anymore. The clinic has called me to assist. They did not want to euthanize because of her gentle & kind nature. Daisy is a great dog. Good with cats, dogs, kids. Housetrained. I have also attached 2 photos. Daisy is healthy & fully vetted.- born deaf. She is still happy & playful. Pls have any interested party call me asap. She cannot remain at the clinic very long.

Thank you,

Deaf Pit Bull in PA Needs Help!


A08487213 Lola Terrier, Pit Bull/Mix, White/Brown, Medium, 0 1-2 years, Bitten: No Bite History

Lola is a non-aggressive, high energy dog that has little or no training. She interacts and focuses on the handler somewhat but is easily distracted. I was told that Lola might be hard of hearing and used a clicker, hand clapping and stomping on the floor in the attempt to get her attention. There was no indication that Lola heard those stimuli. While Lola was looking at me I used food reinforcement to get her attention and ask her not to jump on me. I was moderately successful. We also worked on polite walking. After about five minutes Lola was paying attention to me and not pulling on the leash about 70% of the time. While her hearing problem is definitely a problem, I think that Lola could be trained to respond to a laser pointer or hand signals. I spoke with Lola's owners and they were unwilling and unable to work with a deaf dog. They also stated that Lola was extremely high energy inside of their house. She is also very mouthy and tends to redirect her excitement to mouthing the leash or the arms of her handler. She has left many bruises on her former owner's arms and has ripped her clothing when she gets excited

Deaf Cat in VA Seeks Adoptive Home




Sophie is a gorgeous odd eye solid white cat who is about 2 years old. She is completely deaf but what a great personality. She was surrendered to a shelter in Virginia because her owner became ill. A shelter with too many nice cats and too few adoptions. Poor Sophie ran out of time and the shelter staff asked Fancy Cats to help her! She will make a wonderful companion to some lucky someone! Not quite ready to adopt but would like to foster a cat or kitten? Email info@fancycats.org or call 703-961-1056 to find out how you can help.
