He is so cute...and bless you for saving him. At first glance his little face reminded me of Radar (from the show M*A*S*H*)...maybe your Radar was on when you came upon him (LOL) :lol: :lol: Looks like there will be ons of love for him...good luck

How about Tucker, and when you call him, use the signlanguage sign of a T when calling him. Or something that starts with a K because a signlanguage K would be easier to distingush. Like Kolton, Kelly, Kindle. Decide what letter in sign lanuage would be most recognizable then look up baby names. It won'y be as hard as you think.

I have a dog who is deaf. You are going to have to learn to "talk" with your hands.
I stomp on the floor to get his attention, then with hand signals he will come and go outside, things like that. Really isn't difficult to live with a deaf dog. Puppy training and them running off is a problem.
Good luck, and he sure is a cutie!

We had bull terriers, and I named my black and white one, Tux - Andifar Formal Apparel.
Deaf dogs can be taught Sign Language. Lots of Boxers, Bull Terriers and Dalmations are unilaterally or bilaterially deaf (one ear or both). It is genetically linked to the white gene and due to missing pigment in the inner ear. Kansas St Vet School is where I took all of my puppies to be hearing tested prior to placement. Please be sure to microchip your dog and never, ever let him off of a leash out in the world. Good luck and enjoy this little guy. He will get great joy learning to communicate with you and you with him.

I like
buster. It really doesn't matter which name you choose he won't hear it. What ever fancy's you. I also like Buddy because he is really going to be your Buddy.
He will be very dependant on you I should think.

I think it is great that you took him in, or that he got ahold of your heart. He will be a great friend, and you will manage well with him.
How about Lincoln for a name, you could call him Link for short. He is a cute little man.
