My story

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

Meet C.J.! C.J. is a four month old boxer/Pitbull mix that was surrendered to the shelter when he was around 3 months old. After being at the shelter for a short time, it was determined that C.J. is 100% deaf! However, he was likely born that way, and doesn't know any different. White dogs are more prone to deafness, especially when paired with blue eyes! This doesn't make C.J. any less of a happy, active, cuddly, playful puppy. He is incredibly smart, and watches his foster people intently, waiting for his next hand command. Deaf dogs can be trained easily with a slight adaptation in how you approach training! Touch and visual cues are incredibly important for C.J., and you just have to be careful not to sneak up on him. Luckily, he does sleep like a log, which means like fireworks and thunderstorms are no problem for this sweet boy!

C.J. has been very friendly with the dogs and children he has met. He has not been tested with cats at this time. If you'd like to make C.J. part of your forever family, you can apply to adopt at www.lexpitcrew.org/adopt, and we'll be sure to be in touch right away! His adoption fee is $275.
