MY PET MY VOICE


Pets are animal companions kept primarily for a persons company,compassion or entertainment. They are very faithful especially dogs, deafness does not just affect a person's hearing. It is an invisible disability that isolates people from others. It can cause a huge blow to a person's confidence,depression and can take away a person's independence.
Many deaf people often feel extremely vulnerable in a range of situations where sounds are relied on to provide essential information it could be public announcements in airports or stations to crucial dangers sounds like fire alarms.



For a lot of deaf people, night -time can be terrifying because one is required to take out all hearing aids before you sleep and for many deaf people who would usually hear some sounds are transferred to a totally silent world. Unable to hear footsteps,outside sounds or even potential safety signals fire alarms or calling sounds means falling asleep can be very difficult for hearing impaired person most especially children.





The best way to tackle this and also to help our child be comfortable at night when going to sleep,reduce loneliness and even get you out of depression is by looking for a pet and not just any pet a dog, a puppy to be precise, get it trained to understand languages including sign language in an official institution and it will help you in what you need.


Dogs are called mans best friend not only because of their faithfulness but also because they learn very fast and they can also relate to our feelings-they understand us very well. A simple instruction like lye down,sit or roll over can pave great way for both the dog and you to learn and per-sieve sign language for the dog. It is also important to learn how to train your dog by yourself to increase your bonding and friendship.
