Caitlin is one of our newest doggie super stars. She arrived recently from a rural shelter that Homeward Trails works with. Caitlin impressed the shelter manager with her personality. She is about 10 months old. She is a beautiful, intelligent and very unique looking dog. She absolutely loves other dog friendly dogs that love to play so she'd be a great buddy for a dog such as this. She's a very friendly girl. She's quickly adapting to her routines and quickly picking up on things especially by watching other dogs in her foster home. Any dog that is smart enough to figure out how to sit the way Caitlin is sitting in the photo has got to be one smart cookie! :) Caitlin has an apparent hearing defect in that she doesn't appear to be able to hear sounds. It is likely something congenital, but she doesn't let this stop her in any way. Working with a hearing impaired dog is not difficult - just different. They pick up on things just as dogs with hearing do but they just follow visual cues versus verbal ones.
