Adoptable Special Needs: Downy

June 7, 2009

This striking dog was going to be euthanized (the shelter was over run with too many animals) and yet is one of the happiest dogs you could ever meet. His coat is all white and softer than you can imagine (thus the name). Despite being deaf, Downy is learning hand signals and loves other dogs. Deaf dogs do very well with other dogs as they often rely on a companion as an extra set of ears.
