Hearing test

Great news! Only one puppy that is deaf in one ear. That is Lizzy. All the rest can hear in both. They were tested with the BAER equipment-little electrodes are inserted under the skin on their head to transmit the brainwaves when a sound transmitter is placed in the ear canal.

I suspected that Lizzy was unilateral hearing. When I call her from a distance, she has to look around to see where my voice is coming from. THEN she comes running ;-). Most uni's learn to compensate for their lack of hearing in one ear, and it's much harder to tell in adults.
