“But none for Hooper Humperdink”
-Dr Seuss

Poor Humperdink was adopted but returned through no fault of his own. He is now in boarding with no foster or forever home prospects.
He’s a sweet boy that’s only 6 yrs. He is blind but that doesn’t slow him down. While he gets a long with other dogs for short periods, he MUST be the only pet in the household.
Please share to help get him a home

Mission Statement

Life On Paws is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping deaf and under socialized dogs find their forever homes.

Every dog, whether hearing or deaf, requires consistent on-going training. The key to successfully adding a dog to your family is communication. Dogs do not speak English, or Spanish, or American Sign Language, or any other human language. So, you must learn to communicate with them in a way they can understand. Most of the dogs we take in have the same “problem”: No one took the time to communicate with them in a manner they could understand. Too often people think that having a deaf dog will require more time to train than a hearing dog. This is simply not true. The only difference in training is you cannot rely on audible ques or signals to communicate with a deaf dog.

The dogs in our rescue also have very little or limited experience as a “pet”. It’s our job to help prepare them for their new life with a new family. To do that we must first tackle the basics: get the dog healthy and up to date on shots, introduce collars and leash walking, and impulse control.
