My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Maddie, A 2 year old loving dog! She is deaf but learning hand signals. Maddie loves to run with other dogs in the yard and play with toys. She is very trustworthy and fiercely loyal! Please know that when you commit to adopting Maddie that because she is deaf, she requires a lot of patience and commitment.
if you are going to live with a deaf dog, you will have to learn a new way to communicate with that dog. You will have to tune into the world of movement, vibration and light. You must use some type of sign language system, either American Sign Language or signs you invent yourself. It will seem strange at first, but both you and your dog will adapt quickly. All that's required is a willingness to learn according to DDEAF training tips website.

According to the AKC Australian Shepherds are an energetic breed with strong herding and guarding instincts, the Aussie requires daily vigorous exercise. Although sometimes reserved with strangers, they are "people" dogs that want to always be near their families. Their thick coats require weekly brushing.

If you are still interested in meeting Maddie, she is an outstandingly gorgeous dog with a kind soul! Please visit us today at P.A.W.S. 455 F. Edward Hebert Blvd Belle Chasse La.
