This is Molly's brother

He is staying with us because his family moved to a smaller house and they had 5 Dogs
He is a year old and obviously from another litter

Very Cute!

 

[Guest]

how long are you gonna be keeping him?

 

[Guest]

Love his coat... pretty boy

 

[southerngirls]

ahhh what a sweetie!!

 

[tootsie]

He's a cutie!

 

[SummerLuv]

Thank you I just hope that I can somehow manage to keep whats left of my sanity.
Its gonna be tough because he is deaf and the lady that had him REALLY sheltered him. He had never been outside of his own backyard or house.
She was worried it would scare him.
Also she never had the time to teach him anything so I have to basically start from scratch with him.
I can do it.
And his name is perro blanco (I had it backwards) and there is also another spanish version of his name(slang) that we call him but I dont know how to spell it.

 

[tootsie]

Soooo.....has he found a permanent home with you?  

 

[SummerLuv]

Yes,
I think he would be a good project for me.
He doesnt know anything but >:/ and thats how we get him to come.
I really like him and when I leave here I will be taking ALL of my dogs with me and wont leave unless I know for sure they are allowed or I have arranged something temporary.
(for the people that know my current situation)

Thank you. I hope that he will be loved here just as much as the others.
I know that only one of my dogs is pure bred and I hope it doesnt bother anybody that I talk about the others here also.

 

[Ky_IsisnOnyxsMama]

:wink: they are all pups..and all your babies..so you know they are jsut as loved

 

[SummerLuv]

Ky, I need more ways to be able to get his attention. HELP ME

 

[JeepKuntry]

I'm sure he'll come around soon.  Good luck with all the hand signals.  Only one I do is my fist, they know it as sit.  I got so frustrated with Charlie one day I made a fist to punch the way and he sat right down.  I took that as our little hand signal and to this day, if I say Charlie and make a fist, he sits at full attention.

 

[SummerLuv]

Are either one of your babies deaf? If so I never knew that.

 

[Guest]

Des.

CAn you try maybe stomping?>  I'm sure he could feel vibrations through the floor?  Not sure, but a possibility

 

[TinkerbelleNdMaddy]

haha Maddy, as you may know, is deaf as a door knob. hah, get used to alot of arm waving to get their attention, i find that with stomping it startles them and they get kinda panicked.. then she runs to the door thinking someones there. On average, i wave my arms like an idiot about 39 times a day lmao Good luck on him, he's adorable! What is he?

 

[Barbs2Ks]

He is a cutie, my sister had a deaf dalmation and she (the dalmation) followed the lead of the other dogs; did real well with hand signals.  My sister and brother-in-law made the hand signals up, it was what made sense to them.  The other dogs learned them also.
