Abandoned Dogs Trained for the Hearing Impaired
I read an interesting article online the other day about what a non-profit organization in Japan
is doing about the problem of abandoned dogs. This organization, although they cannot rescue all
the dogs, have opened a facility in Yokohama, Japan that will implement a training program for these abandoned dogs to be trained as service dogs for the deaf.
Hearing dogs for the deaf are trained to alert deaf people to sounds, both inside and outside of the home. Sounds such as fire/smoke alarms, telephones, door knocks, doorbells, oven timers, alarm clocks, etc. that we on a daily basis take for granted. Without the dog a person is dependent on someone else for this.
It has been shown that a hearing dog will increase a deaf persons’ feelings of security and confidence.
Organizations involved in dog training programs for hearing dogs, look for these dogs in rescue centers, private homes, breeders and pounds. They are always looking for new sources especially with rescue groups.
They look for dogs that have a friendly disposition, alertness, intelligence good temperament and confidence. Eventually the hearing dog will have to be reliable in all types of situations. They also look for people that can foster these potential hearing dogs. Like the seeing eye dog these dogs first need to be socialized and obedience trained.
Although a hearing dog can be trained in as little as three months, most dog training programs for a hearing dog takes closer to a year.
Obedience training and socialization is quite extensive.
The dogs are then normally trained in a home-like environment to recognize and react to sounds that will be found in the new owners home.(Telephones and doorbells are different in every persons home). Part of the training will take place in the new owners home with the dog and the trainer.
When training is completed the new owner and dog do have follow-up with the trainer to make sure everything is going ok.
The new facility in Japan will also be training young people on how to become hearing dog trainers.
It is believed that approximately 10,000 people with hearing disabilities are waiting for a service dog, so not only dogs are needed but trainers as well. The students will undergo a six month training course, part of which requires them to work with a potential hearing dog for three hours a day.
Once a student completes the course they can obtain support to further their education and hopefully find a job in their related field.
Again not all abandoned dogs are rescued since this organization looks for the above mentioned characteristics in potential hearing dogs.
The agency is hoping that this new facility will raise the publics awareness of the plight of the abandoned dogs and the use of hearing dogs.
Hearing dogs have legal access to all public places when accompanied by their masters. They often wear a bright orange leash and collar to identify them. Hearing Dogs may accompany their owner into public places, such as grocery stores and restaurants since they have the same legal access rights as a Guide Dog for the blind.
So who is eligible for a hearing dog? Priority is given to candidates over 18 years of age who have at least a 65 decibel hearing loss(unaided). Also priority is given to a person living alone or with another deaf or hard of hearing person but a deaf person living with a hearing person will also be considered. The candidate must also be physically able and willing to care for and continue the training of the dog.
Yes dogs are truly an amazing creature.

How can I Stop my dog from barking at the doorbell?
Every time my doorbell rings my two-year-old black lab starts to bark. Even if it is someone she knows she will keep barking. It is getting annoying and needs to stop. Please help!
I don’t suggest using any kind of punishment, like the person above suggested. That only teaches a dog fear. Try setting up a training scenario with a friend. Keep your dog on a leash. Have your friend knock on the door, and just ignore it. Wait until your dog stops barking and have your friend do this again, but ringing the doorbell. Keep going back and forth between the two, and the second the dog stops barking and quiets down, give him a treat. Do this every single time when someone comes to the door and your dog does not bark.
