She is looking for a home without young children as she is deaf and will need extra time and respect of boundaries while she settles in. Oreo gets along well with people and the other dogs she has met, but there is always the risk of a startle reaction because she cannot hear what is going on around her. OTHER PETS: Oreo was calm while meeting other dogs.
