About Vinny
Vinny is an amazingly sweet, affectionate and happy 4 year old deaf boy. He thrives on companionship with humans and other dogs. He is very self-assured, interactive and confident.
I would love a calm, patient and gentle canine sister to spend my days with
I am prone to chasing smaller animals, so I would be best in a home without cats
When at home I like to spend as much time with my humans as possible
I can be boisterous with other dogs and humans at first and can tend to jump up. This is because I don't understand social cues like a hearing dog, but I can calm down after a short time. A bit of training work and I will be a perfect gentleman!
I love my food and this is great because food can be used as a wonderful tool for training
My crate is my safe place. I find it a bit hard to settle and snuggle on the couch, but this is something I would like to learn to enjoy
If I am left alone too long, I will find things to eat that I am not supposed to, so you will need to ensure that I am around my humans as much as possible and that nothing is left around for me to munch on
Please think about taking my into your heart and home! VBTR will give all training support and education about Deaf dogs and how to bring out the best in them.
Fill out a no obligation foster application form and one of the VBTR Board will give you a call to chat!

Adoption details
VBTR places all dogs in a foster care agreement, before moving forward on adoptions. All foster applications received will be assessed and those that meet the needs of the dog will have house & suitability checks. From there, approved applicants will have the opportunity to foster with a view to adopt. Most go onto be ‘foster fails’ and adopt these beautiful bullies. VBTR work tirelessly to ensure successful foster to adopt placements for the benefit of both dogs and humans alike! Bully Buddies are assigned to every dog support this process.
