Hearing Dogs For Deaf People

That Friday feeling 😃🐾

Hearing dog puppy Yoshi did a great job on his first shopping trip. He was on his best behaviour and kept his concentration at all times. 🛒
Well done Yoshi! 👏🐾

It's important our puppies know that all other animals - big or small - should be seen as friends, not foe (or food!). 🐾
Here's the lovely Inca meeting a neighbour's cat for the first time. 🐱
She was a little unsure at first, but soon realised that the cat was not a toy - or a great play buddy - and she kept a safe distance at all times.

It's a double #TongueOutTuesday 😛
Introducing a very happy Jasmine and Valour 😃
We'd love to see some more attempts 📸

How do you stay cool in this weather? ☀️
Our hearing dogs may know one or two ways 😎🐾

There's only one place to start to the week...
A huge congratulations and thank you to the intrepid explorers, who conquered Snowdon overnight on Saturday. ⛰️
You are all heroes! 😃🐾

Cuteness overload. 😍
Uncle Chilli loves nothing more than looking after his adorable nephew Luxor. ❤️🐾

A big round of a-paws to hearing dog puppy Marcus, who took travelling by train in his stride 👏🐾
It’s really important our hearing dog pups experience public transport before they become a hearing dog. If a deaf person gets a bus or a train to work, we want to make sure their new hearing dog is comfortable with this experience.
Well done Marcus! 😀

Hearing dog puppy Rio would like to wish everyone a happy #AssistanceDogDay! 🎉🐾
Doesn't he look smart in his learning jacket 😍

We'd love to be in a paddling pool right now! ☀️
Let us know your paw-fect captions for this fab photo with hearing dog puppies Archer and Harry. 😍🐾

Deafness does not just affect a person’s hearing, it can isolate people and take away their confidence and independence.
Our amazing dogs make such a difference - thank you to everyone who supports us! 😍🐾

A reminder to keep an eye out for Blue-green Algae as the hot weather returns. ☀️
The algae is more prevalent during & after sunny periods, so don't let your dog swim in or drink water from rivers, streams, ponds or lakes in affected areas, and avoid any water that doesn’t look totally clean.
One excellent, safe and fun way to help your dog cool off as the temperature rises is to use a paddling pool.
... Have you seen an area that's been affected? Let's spread the word to keep our four-legged friends safe. 😃🐾
Our friends at The Kennel Club UK have written a helpful guide to the the dangers of Blue-green Algae. Click below to read it.

Hot off the press from our Beatrice Wright Centre in Bielby... 😃
Happy Yorkshire Day everyone. 🎉🐾

A huge congratulations to Tank, who has passed his second stage of hearing dog training. 🎉
Tank's next challenge is to use all he has learned to start making his own decisions, rather than being told what to do. This is also where we start introducing soundwork that will allow him to transform a deaf person’s life. 😃🐾

Perhaps our cutest #TongueOutTuesday yet thanks to hearing dog puppy Didi. 😛
We'd love to see photos of any more attempts. 😃🐾

Happy #InternationalFriendshipDay everyone. 😀🐾
Best buddies Merlin & Ralph had a fab weekend playing together. ☺️

How's this for some Monday motivation? 💪
Our very own Vol Team HDogs Manager Victoria conquered the RideLondon-Surrey 100 for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People on Sunday. 🚲
Congratulations Victoria. 😃
