I have 2 spayed females I adopted from the Tombstone Small Animal Shelter. Nina is a terrier mix, and the smartest, most loving dog I’ve ever had. Maya is an Australian Heeler, a herding dog breed, and was culled by a breeder when he realized she was deaf. The only time you would realize she is deaf is when she’s facing away from you or sleeping, as she won’t respond to noise. And she probably doesn’t realize she’s missing anything, and is a wonderful pet. And the two of them are all I can handle in my house. Good luck, Levi!
