Title: deaf dog?? Post by: TurdBurd on October 09, 2012, 10:04:30 am i have a dog that barks constently in the pen. he will just walk in circles and bark. I put a bark collar on him and he barks till the battery goes dead. could this dog be deaf?? if so, what are some tests to see if he is?

Title: Re: deaf dog?? Post by: jimco on October 09, 2012, 09:52:16 pm Snap your fingers or jingle some keys when he is sleeping or laying facing away from you. Do not shoot a shot gun to see if he's deaf.
He will feel the blast or percussion. You can also drop a metal feed pan when he is sleeping. Just make sure he can't feel the wind from it. Some dogs are not completely deaf but have what is known as directional hearing. Title: Re: deaf dog?? Post by: TurdBurd on October 10, 2012, 12:00:54 pm thanks everyone
