Sorry to see this devastating news “Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is sad to report that our missing hearing dog in-training, Fenton, has been found dead near Chinnor, Oxfordshire. The two year old male spaniel disappeared in late August whilst on a walk, and despite several sightings it appears he was hit by a car and died of his injuries.
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People Chief Executive, Michele Jennings said, “We are terribly saddened by the loss of Fenton and in particular, my thoughts are with the volunteers who had such an important part in his upbringing, and his trainers at the charity, who worked so closely with him. Hearing Dogs are a lifeline to the deaf children and adults they are partnered with, and the effort that goes into the training them is extraordinary. Fenton had great potential, and so his loss is very significant.” 29th September’16.
