A very proud Hearing Dogs for Deaf People owner of Bow here as he shows off his powerful swimming stroke - a dog who grew his confidence in water and now think he needs to rescue me if he spots me in the water 🙄😆

Are you ready for some cute videos? 😃🐾 Clever Ozzie is practising his 'down', Morris is showing off his football skills, it's hello from Bow, and goodnight from Rupert. You will also see Filo a bit unsure of the sea, but Aero and Pippa loving the water!

This is the beautiful Coda, who is doing a great job in the second stage of her hearing dog training 😍 It won't be long until Coda is practising more often in shops and cafés, and we know she is going to take these experiences in her stride 😊

Bow can’t go past these bridges without going in the river for his ‘treat hunting’. He has yet to work out that the stream/river flows…!

Age 17 & a GB Deaf swimmer I was told I wouldn’t swim again-having my inner ear balance destroyed bilaterally with toxic drugs. 2yrs ago tomorrow I attempted to swim the channel for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People after having booked the safety boat well before the pandemic started. What a day!

My Hearing Dogs for Deaf People Bow today demonstrated how much training & effort goes in to make him focus on me, & not the bread at his nose height- perfect for my balance-issues & making me visible in the supermarket. Big shout out to volunteers who trained him in the pandemic! Volunteering H-Dogs

Roy is swimming into his 14th hour for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People & France feels like it is in touching distance! It has done for some time but the tide pushes him sideways & the tiredness stops him getting in. Sponsor him here! bit.ly/3YfUOwC
