Thora, a sweet puppy, was born different. She was the runt of the litter and struggled at first, but she made it through. Thora’s life changed when a kind woman named Erin rescued her from a breeder who wanted to crop her ears.
Erin couldn’t bear to see Thora suffer, so she took her in. She soon discovered that Thora was deaf and didn’t respond to sounds. Instead of seeing this as a challenge, Erin embraced Thora’s uniqueness and worked with dog behaviorists to help her feel safe and happy.
A Deaf Dog with a Superpower
Erin thinks Thora’s deafness is a superpower! She doesn’t get startled by loud noises like other dogs do. Thora is calm and peaceful, even in a busy city. Erin and Thora communicate using hand signs and body language, and their bond has grown stronger over time.
A Unique and Lovable Companion
Thora is a one-of-a-kind pup, with a special appearance that Erin describes as a mix of a piglet, dinosaur, and alien! She has a distinctive cappuccino-colored coat and a wagging tail that always makes people smile. Thora’s smile is contagious, and she spreads joy wherever she goes.
A Lesson in Embracing Differences
Having Thora in her life has taught Erin that everyone is different and learns in their own way. Thora may have special needs, but she’s still a beloved member of the family. Erin’s love and acceptance have given Thora the happy life she deserves.
