If she responds to vibrations you can thump and then use visual cues to communicate with her; that worked quite well when our dog went deaf. (Our other dog also spontaneously started being "helper dog" and would go poke him when I dropped food in the kitchen and for other events he'd be interested in.)
We got a vibrating collar that we're going to try to train her to look at us with. Also hand motions and pointing work really well. And I sign a "J" for her name.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
Yeah!

ReplyDelete:D Smart doggo. I like the collar -- lets you signal regardless of the environment.
