Welcome to The Hearing Dogs Microsite

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is the only registered charity in the UK that selects and trains dogs, mostly from rescue centres, to alert deaf people to important household sounds and danger signals.

Hearing dogs make an enormous difference to the lives of their deaf owners by providing greater independence, confidence and security - as well as valuable companionship.

The Charity does not receive any government funding, and so relies solely on the enthusiasm and generosity of individuals, groups and companies to raise vital funds needed to continue its important work.

In 2007, the Charity was 25 years old! During this eventful quarter of a century, Hearing Dogs have created more than 1,400 life-changing partnerships between trained hearing dogs and deaf people.

We hope to make even more people aware of these wonderful dogs that change lives. Please help us by telling all your friends, relatives and colleagues!

You can get in training to help change the lives of more deaf people and unwanted puppies by participating in one or more of the many different sponsored events by clicking on the links above.
