Deafness in dogs can be distressing for both you and your furry friend, but with the right support, deaf dogs can go on to live happy, fulfilling lives. Whether your dog was born deaf or lost their hearing later in life, understanding the condition is the first step towards managing it confidently and compassionately.
As a vet with over a decade of experience in small animal practice, I’ve worked with countless dogs coping with hearing loss. I’ve seen first-hand how deafness affects not just their day-to-day lives, but also their relationships with their owners.
