  • Dr. Lera talks about deafness in dogs with Boogie.
    Generally, it is fairly straightforward to determine if a dog is deaf. Puppies who are deaf may seem slow to learn; they do not respond to their names or pick up verbal commands. Older dogs with acquired deafness may sleep through your arrival home from work. A few simple tests can check a dog’s hearing at home: rattle your keys, squeak a toy, clap your hands behind the dog, ring a bell & whistle. It is important to do these when your dog cannot see the source of the noise as they may respond to the visual cues and give a false result. If you get no response, it is a good bet that the dog is deaf. (source: VCA Hospitals)

    My old girl is losing her hearing due to age. After taking showers, I find her sleeping in front of the dresser. I try to step over her and not disturb her, so I can get dressed. Occasionally, I don’t lift my foot high enough, depending on where and how she’s lying, and it brushes her head, causing her to startle like she heard a gunshot. It breaks my heart to see her like this. All in all, she is a happy, loved dog. She sleeps more now, but she’s still her neurotic old self.

      @@choccocker apparently if the jaw is open to wide or for too long it can cut off the blood supply to the cochlear in the ear , it is quite rare and even my vet had only seen it once in his career, most vets use a mouth guard to prevent this , my dog has since had another clean with no further damage ….he hears loud noises but not voices, I clap now to get his attention

      Probably shouldn't have pets if you can't pay for them... same principle applies to credit cards.

      I dont think vets (like human doctors) want to charge so much, but there are a lot of factors in medicine. Please look at pet insurance for your animals. It really helps reduce your financial burden!
