Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is a UK charity that trains dogs to alert deaf people to sounds they can't hear, as well as helping them leave loneliness behind.
Hearing dog puppy Dixon is not only unbelievably cute, but he also listens intently and has incredible focus for such a young pup 👏

We thought you might like to see a little bit more of cocker spaniel puppy Aled 👋😍
Aled is at the very start of his hearing dog training and is looking forward to having as much fun as possible 🐶
Hearing dogs alert to most sounds by nudging their partner with their nose before leading them to the noise 🐶
However, if they hear a danger sound like a smoke alarm, they will lie down rather than lead their partner into a potentially dangerous situation.
Take it away Hector.
Cocker spaniel Rose is in the final stage of training and she is learning all the sounds she will alert her future deaf partner to 🐶🌹
You will see Rose alert to a doorbell, timer, smoke alarm & fire siren, and you will also see how she will wake her partner to an alarm clock.
It's
