From the back cover:

“Compare to all dogs, all humans are hearing-challenged!

But it takes more than sharp ears to be a Hearing Dog.  Mixed companion-breed dogs from shelters and rescues have proven themselves to be more talented for this career than any existing dog breed.  When a curious, people-loving busybody of a mutt with a natural interest in sounds is trained and paired with the right human partner, wonderful things happen.

Martha explains:

  • The complex temperament of the perfect Hearing Dog
  • Testing methods to select shelter dogs for Hearing Dog potential
  • Dog-friendly training methods for teaching a dog to alert to sounds”
