Update 4/15/25: They are no longer taking applications on Lainey, Joe or Martina because they have received so many.

 

Meet adoptable deaf (2 are visually impaired also) pups Lainey, Joe and Martina who are each looking for loving forever homes with someone who will make daily positive reinforcement sign and touch training/socialization and enrichment and always keep them safe.

From their rescue advocate: Arise Animal Rescue pulled a sweet, heavily pregnant mama dog from a local NC shelter. She gave birth to 7 beautiful puppies! Unfortunately, these poor souls were born with double merle, causing 3 of them to be blind and/or deaf.

Lainey is deaf and blind, Joe is deaf and partially blind, and Martina is deaf. While they can’t hear or see, they are still so incredibly sweet and puppies are so adaptable!

They have mapped out my house with their noses and live perfectly normal lives (asides from bumping into things from time to time!). They are SO sweet and goofy, just like their mama and I know they will make someone an amazing companion and best friend! Arise Animal Rescue covers their first two sets of puppy shots, rabies shots, microchip, dewormer, and their spay/neuter between 6-8 months. They will be ready to go to their new homes on April 15th!
