[nagdu] deafblind and petting Musher secret

[Marsha Drenth]

I would agree with janice here. I too can't hear if someone is petting my dog, but I can tell from her body language, that someone is in front of me, that someone is petting or that my puppy is distracted. I have had my pup work ignoring people who are petting her. Even though I do not hear much of anything, I have learned to read my dogs movements whether in the harness or not.

I usually know when someone is petting Destiny even if they are not saying anything because the person petting her has gotten her attention and distracted her so that her head or body wants to move closer to them or she wants to try and roll over for more petting if she really likes what the person is doing.

>> Hi Rox, I have a question for you. I'm also deaf-blind and have been working with my first guide for a little over a month. My dog happens to be a dog that seems to attract people. I have had a few people try to pet her while walking however, I was with someone at those times and was told what was going on. How can I deal with this when I can't hear them do it because they don't say anything? I wear hearing aids so I have enough hearing that most people don't realize I'm deaf-blind. I can communicate verbally easily in a lot of situations but not in really noisy places. Any ideas would be appreciated.
