Reason for rehoming pet | I have arthritis in the neck and spine and it is progressing so I have a hard time walking her |
Kind of home pet needs | She would love a fenced yard since she likes being outside. She needs a one-story house since she only has three legs. Because she is deaf, Xena will need someone who can develop skills in visual communication, such as using consistent hand signals and clear body language, and employ methods like positive reinforcement for training and prioritize safety precautions and learn how to get her attention without sound. understands living with a deaf dog |
