Hi, I'm Bernard <br/><br/>Yes, that Bernard-the very handsome Dalmatian with the spots and the big smile. I may not hear the world the way you do, but trust me, I feel everything that matters.<br/><br/>Being deaf just means I pay extra attention to what I can see-your face, your hands, your energy. I'm basically an expert in eye contact and tail-wag communication. Want to tell me I'm a good boy? A thumbs-up and a smile say it louder than words ever could.<br/><br/>I'm a sweet, loyal guy who loves routines, cozy spots, and being near my people. Once I get to know you, I'll stick by your side like your shadow (a very cute, spotted shadow). I'm also pretty smart-hand signals? I can learn those. Treats? I already understand those perfectly.<br/><br/>I'd do best with someone patient and kind who's excited to bond with me in my own special way. In return, I'll give you unconditional love, silent cuddles, and a best friend who truly sees you.<br/><br/>So... what do you think? Want to be my person?<br/><br/>Love,<br/>Bernard ...
