If
you
or
I
had
a
problem
with
out
hearing,
we
would
look
into
the
possibility
of
solving
that
problem
with
a
hearing
aid.
We
would
never
be
expected
to
simply
adapt
without
trying
to
improve
our
hearing,
yet
we
expect
our
dogs
to
simply
carry
on
with
life
as
they
did
before.
Many
dogs
live
a
long
and
healthy
life
nowadays,
although
as
they
reach
their
teen
years,
it
is
common
for
certain
conditions
to
exist
and
one
of
these
is
hearing
loss.
You
can
tell
if
your
dog
is
losing
his/her
hearing
because
they
simply
won’t
respond
when
you
call
them,
unless
they
are
looking
right
at
you.
Other
tell
tale
signs
are
not
responding
when
someone
comes
to
the
front
door;
when
he/she
is
asleep
you
can
only
wake
them
by
touching
them;
you
may
also
find
that
they
shake
their
head
and
seem
to
be
bothered
by
their
ears
a
lot.
It
should
be
easy
to
tell
if
your
dog
has
a
hearing
problem.
There
is
a
solution
for
hearing
loss
as
you
can
actually
get
hearing
aids
designed
specifically
for
dogs.
There
is
a
clinic
in
Texas
which
offers
hearing
tests
for
dogs
and
once
the
test
has
been
completed,
the
owner
can
find
out
if
it
can
be
improved
with
a
hearing
aid.
The
clinic
spends
approximately
one
month
getting
the
dog
used
to
the
hearing
aid.
During
this
time,
the
volume
is
gradually
increased
until
it
reaches
the
correct
level.
This
way;
it
is
not
such
a
shock
to
the
animal
when
the
hearing
aid
is
turned
on.
Hearing
aids
for
the
dogs
cost
approximately
$250
each
and
this
includes
the
month
initializing
program.
A
common
type
of
hearing
aids
for
canines
is
a
device
which
sits
on
a
collar
and
is
similar
in
design
and
style
to
a
BTE
hearing
aid
used
on
humans.
The
concept
is
that
tubes
co
from
the
device
to
a
foam
plug
which
has
been
placed
inside
the
ear.
Smaller
dogs
seem
to
have
adapted
to
this
kind
of
aid
a
lot
better
than
the
larger
breeds.
There
are
also
ITE
(in
the
ear)
hearing
aids
available.
It
is
necessary
to
take
a
mould
of
the
dog’s
ear
canal
for
this
device
which
is
then
sent
to
a
lab
where
the
hearing
aid
is
made.
There
is
always
a
question
however
of
whether
or
not
your
dog
will
accept
having
the
aid
in
his/her
ear
because
not
all
dogs
do.
While
many
owners
feel
that
it
is
worth
the
money
just
to
try,
other
people
cannot
afford
it.
Check
with
your
insurance
as
some
companies
will
pay
for
the
cost
of
the
hearing
aid
The
sound
of
your
voice
is
a
comfort
to
your
dog.
They
will
feel
safer
once
they
can
hear
it
again
and
will
also
gain
in
confidence
as
there
is
no
need
to
be
so
conscious
of
whether
there
is
any
danger
around.
Your
dog
will
undoubtedly
be
happier
and
will
improve
their
life
significantly.
