Keller, the Dog of the Day
Name: Keller
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Female Breed: Australian Shepherd
Home: Baltimore, Maryland, USA
 
   Keller is such a special girl. She is deaf and vision impaired, but nothing gets her down.

    Keller is my second Aussie. I have another female Kai, who has no impairments. I fell in love with Keller when I saw a picture being networked on Facebook. It said a deaf puppy was about to be put to sleep and then it was saved and was looking for a home. When I contacted them about her they knew for sure she was deaf, but they also thought she was completely blind, thankfully she isn't and can see some.

    She is a very sweet and very smart dog. She loves to snuggle up with me and her sister dog, but she also loves playing like a maniac. We really enjoy hiking. She knows all of her commands through touch and hand signals. She currently knows about twelve commands. She's also been participating in agility and does surprisingly wonderfully well. She is truly amazing and shows everyone that being a little different can be a good thing.
