Pam's Diamond Dogs Appeal

Please join me in trying to raise £20,000 for Hearing Dogs - money which will directly support the selection and training of four dogs for deaf people - my Diamond Dogs: Mindy, Pip, Jack and Wellington; each with a remarkable story to tell.

My Diamond Dogs have each had their lives turned around and are now doing the same for their deaf partners. But we desperately need to find the funds to cover the costs of training them. Please send as much as you can spare. Every single penny you're able to give will make a real difference; supporting Mindy, Pip, Jack and Wellington and helping the Charity to select and train other dogs like them for deaf people.

Togs for Dogs 2009

Hearing Dogs is proud to relaunch our Togs for Dogs activity pack for 2009. One of the most important aspects of Togs for Dogs is learning about deaf awareness and communication tactics. Each lesson, exercise, activity and experiment has been carefully developed around the National Curriculum and Curriculum for Excellence guidelines for Key Stages Foundation to Four. The pack is also ideal as a resource for youth groups and guiding associations such as Brownies and Cubs.

Interactive activities include: Basic finger spelling, a competition to design the Togs for Dogs logo for 2010, a competition to design a non-uniform coat for hearing dog Phoebe, and projects to explain how hearing works among many others.

To request your Togs for Dogs CD please email us or call 01844 348133
