my 14 yr old #doggo is starting to lose his hearing, so i'm teaching him a few hand gestures for his known vocabulary before his hearing completely goes. he's very excited!

we're working on: dinner, treat, outside, and pee-pee

next words: bed, cuddle, kitty, and my son's name

@mantisbat suggestion: if you want your dog’s attention Stomp your feet , preferably on a wooden floor. At night, flip the lights. You can also hook up a lamp to the doorbell that will flash when rung. Just some ideas.
@dolfin513
these are great ideas! thank you so much--i'll start working on these with my pup. 😃
@mantisbat Gina, how’s that pup doing? I adopted a brain damaged dog. I actually pupnapped him away from the man that damaged him. It was the best of times and the worse of time. He still, sends me exactly the dog I need. Tyke was a good boi. He was before digital. I gotta scan him.
