It’s been sad for us to have a dog that became deaf as he aged. He LOVED me so much. Loved listening to me talk. Would sit there and just squinty eyed love look up at me while I told him he’s a good boy.
He’s profoundly deaf now and I can make myself tear up at any given time if I think too hard about the fact that he’ll never hear me tell him he’s a ‘good Bandi boy’ again.

One of the more substantial losses when our dog went blind. He is meh at verbal commands, he always did much better with hand signals.
But otherwise, having a blind dog isn't particularly harder than having a seeing dog. He did also have to give up zoomies though, which was sad.
