Hi am new to this site, however I was looking for a little assistance.
I have been offered a pup, which the family were all unanimous in selecting from the litter. However it has come to light that she is deaf, the breeder has taken her for testing and she has 20% hearing results from the BAER testing.
Not knowing too much about deafness in pups I was wondering if a "silent" dog whistle would be suitable for use with her? We live on 50 acres and if she is to bring the cattle from the bottom boundary, then I figure hand signals are going to be out of the question. Obviously hand signals can be used for close work and around the house, I really dont want to see her end up being culled due to this issue.
Any suggestions, experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Steve
