*** Sweetheart available for adoption – currently in Washington state, but we’re able to help transport for the perfect new family ***

Hi! I’m Ty! I am an 8-year-old, deaf female Boxer/Pittie mix searching for my forever home. I am currently with my foster family in Washington.

I know I’m not a puppy, but I am still in touch with my playful, puppy self. My dream job is to be a “couch potato and lead cuddle buddy.” While I enjoy calm, I am always ready to play ball on a sunny (or even rainy) day. I do enjoy walks and it would be a big plus to have a fenced yard to run around in. I am full of personality, and love snuggling and playing with toys.

I am housebroken, crate-trained, and use hand signals for communication. I understand hand signals for sit, stay, down, and come but could benefit from someone who can teach me more ways to communicate. I catch on quickly and always looks to my person for guidance. My foster family is happy to provide resources to assist with owning a deaf dog, including tips and tricks to help you build the best relationship with me.

My ideal home is a single-dog home or with a special family who understands my needs. (Adding a deaf pup to an established pack can be challenging because we don’t always pick up on standard dog communication, which can lead to misunderstandings with other dogs.) If you happen to work from home (even on occasion), that’s even better! I am the perfect fit for you! I grew up around many people and other dogs but am happier in a home as an only dog. I also do well with kids but I can become overwhelmed by lots of hustle and bustle, so I would do best in a household with a reasonably consistent schedule.

I am very observant of my surroundings. I can be timid and unsure of strangers at first but I use my good judgment and warm up quickly.
I would love to meet you! “My heart of gold can’t wait to be loved, adored, and the center of my new family.”

Other details…
My adoption fee is $350. (We will be donating the adoption fee to the org that finds her adopter)
