In this episode, Extraordinary Dogs delves into the vital world of hearing and support dogs. In the USA, Canine Companions for Independence meticulously trains Labradors and Goldens to serve as hearing dogs for deaf individuals, responding to daily sounds. In Canada, Bingo, a Jack Russell Terrier, alerts Cole’s parents immediately when his breathing changes during dangerous night episodes. In Belgium, Amos, a hairless Chinese Crested dog, cares for Marika, a profoundly deaf and allergic woman, empowering her with independence and safety. These stories demonstrate how trained dogs offer sensory support and life-enhancing companionship.
