Hello New England, Petey here! I am so excited to finally be given the chance to get my own forever family. I was in a rural shelter in KY that shut down so I got moved to another shelter, they adopted me out a few times but I was returned because the humans never gave me a chance to show them how awesome I am even though I am deaf. I would love a family that has experience with deaf dogs or one that is willing to go to training with me to learn how to communicate with me.
I do have a heart condition that needs to be monitored as well but I don't let that bring me down. I love to go hiking and explore the world. I hope we can see the world together! I get along with my K9 friends though I do prefer to be "top dog" so I probably would not do well with another dominant dog.

Compatibility:
Dogs: Yes, but no dominant dogs

Kids: Has been good with kids 12+

The Basics:
