My best experience above and beyond Astro’s wonderful companionship has been the realization that I have not had to explain my hearing loss to strangers. It has been liberating!

“We are a TEAM! I have been out more in the last two weeks with Enzo than I had in the last two years alone!”

"When the implants are off, being alerted of the fire alarm or if an intruder came in would be incredibly helpful. A hearing dog will surely enhance my life and make me feel safer."

“All of our preparation and Zooming worked!! I just emailed all my friends over lunch letting them know we passed!!”

Sara’s newfound sense of security and Augie’s unwavering companionship have become integral parts of their shared journey.

With Jagger by her side Katie feels ". . . safe and confident enough to re-engage in life. To simply enjoy life more fully."

"Beauty has greatly improved my independence. . . I feel safe in my home and when I’m out in public."

"The darkness is gone. Curly has brought hope and happiness back to me!"

"Grayson has improved my life greatly. I am so thankful to have him. I can’t imagine ever being without him now...Having him alert me [to sounds] is amazing."
