"Miley" is Deaf
Meet Miley in Remus, MI
Thank You, Melanie & Skye, for 1 month Sponsor
 Update 5-14-09: Miley is making her way from Ohio to Michigan to join the pack.
Miley is new to rescue on 4-19-09 from a southern Ohio owner surrender. Miley is a deaf, 10 month old, 31#, female who is happy and sweet. She has had way to many homes in her short life and we will be very careful with her next and final placement. Miley has been good with the new dogs, children and people she has met. She was a great pup on her transport and took it all in stride. We will get her scheduled for her vetting and start crate training, housebreaking, and learning general obedience. Since Miley is deaf we will have extra requirements for her adoptive home. Australian Cattle Dog experience will be a must and deaf dog experience a plus. Check back for updates.
UPDATE 5/1/09: Miley has impressed us with her adapting skills. She has come into rescue and fit right in. She is housebroken, but doesn't signal to go out yet. She crates all night from 10pm-6am keeping it dry and being quiet. She happily follows me everywhere. Outside in the fenced in yard, she checks in with me and is learning the sign for "come", "sit", and "down". She loves to play with the other dogs, but plays a bit rough, since she can't hear a yelp, so we are helping her to understand when the other dog has had enough. She is catching on well.
Miley is content to lay at my feet, touching me so she knows when I move, or go for a walk. Whatever you are doing Miley wants to help. We have discovered she can hear deep clapping when she is asleep. Miley is a normal teenage ACD - everyone who has met her has no idea she is deaf. She is a joy to have around!
Our adoption fee includes the spaying or neutering, vaccinations that are age appropriate, HW testing (adults), microchipping, deworming and preventative. Please consider a rescued ACD that has all the medical basics done.
