About Bones
Introducing Bones, a 12-month-old Bull Arab whose ears may be silent, but whose spirit speaks volumes. Deaf but determined, Bones already knows the silent language of love: a closed fist means "sit" and a pocket full of snacks means "instant best friend." His confidence needs building, especially around handling and dog interactions, but his willingness to learn and engage shows there's a brave heart behind those soulful eyes.
Bones is best suited as a solo pup in a calm, adult or teen household where patience leads the way and enrichment turns every day into a learning adventure. Though he's strong on lead and not much of a toy enthusiast, his food motivation makes him an ideal candidate for positive reinforcement training. With gradual introductions, environmental enrichment and a secure yard for sniffy explorations, Bones could be your silent sidekick-loyal, loving and ready to prove that you don't need words to say "I love you."
