The skills of the dog are the main qualification and then they are placed according to size (ie my dog is a spaniel/mini poodle cross and I got her when I lived in a small 2 bed house). Obviously they also have to form a bond with their recepient; I had to meet my dog first to see if we got on.
Please do not hesitate in donating a dog to Hearing Dogs, mine changed my life. In fact she has saved my life twice now because she notified me of things I couldn't hear!
They also look for homes for retired Hearing Dogs since some people cannot keep their newdog as well as the old one so you could apply to recieve a fullytrained older dog!
They are also looking for puppy socialisers. Please do support them!

If anyone wants to ask me any questions please feel free.
Can't donate a dog but I have made a cash donation to the charity - my employer allows us to nominate a charity to receive a donation on the occasion of our birthday. Always great to hear from a beneficiary first hand - thank you.0
