I had a pup that became deaf at age 5 - she lives to be 11 years old.
We did an obedience class as son as she got used to following me on a leash. She learn all tricks like sit stay, stand, down, and come by using hand signals. She loved learning new signals, probably for the attention, but she learned everything I tried to teach her.

She could be easily startled at time so we what he out for that, but she could feel vibrations on the floor when people walking in, most of the time.

If you have another dog, that is kind, in the house the new pup will follow that one around and learn the household schedule and such from the older dog.

If you have the time for this pup I will wager it will be devoted and a joy!!!
I am hoping that after the parasites etc are treated that maybe the pup is not TOTOALLY deaf.

Keep us posted, please!
