99% of the time I am unbothered by birds, but every now and again a pigeon or bin chicken will do something shady and then I will lose my mind. I play VERY loudly because I cannot hear myself, which leaves some other dog owners worried that I am vicious, but really I just LOVE being chased and doing zoomies Instead of barking like a normal dog I quack like a duck (because I am deaf) I can jump over 6ft into the air from a stationary position Carrots are one of my all time favourite treats, I pretty much inhale them whole Needless to say, when my mum saw Khaos Kollars’ rainbow muzzle, she decided that we NEEDED it and it matches my rainbow mohawk perfectly That way if there is ever an emergency, or I am injured, I will be happy wearing a muzzle and there will be one less thing to stress about. However, my mums realised the benefits of muzzle training and decided to train me up just in case. My husky brother, Diego, used to be dog reactive, so he was muzzled trained initially. Fortunately, once I settled in and got used to having another dog in my space I stopped this behaviour.ĭue to my deafness my pawrents had to put some extensive training into my recall and manners, but if there is something more interesting I will always pretend that I can’t see their hand signals. My brother had to quickly learn to give me a wide berth when I was sleeping/eating, because I had a bit of a ‘snap first, check who it was later’ mentality. As a deaf dog, I struggled when another dog touched my if I was asleep or eating, because I couldn’t hear them coming. ![]() When I was first adopted I was a bit skittish around other dogs. I live in Brisbane, Australia with my two mums and my rescue husky brother, Diego. Hey there, I am Duchess the Deaf Unicorn! I am a 3 year old Wolfhound x Dalmatian who was rescued from a neglect/abuse situation 2 years ago.
