My boxer puppy is all white but she is deaf, we've taught her how to sit, lay down, high five and give me paw, but I'm worried about her getting loose one day and getting hitt by a car! How do I teach her to come if she can't hear me? Please someone, I need advice!

I have a deaf Boston Terrier mix, and he generally seems to resist all forms of training. I think that's the breed rather than the disability though. You should definitely keep your puppy on a leash at all times when outdoors. That's the easiest way. In the house or yard you can get her attention by stomping on the floor/ground close to her or you could use a flashlight or laser pointer to get her attention.

if you you click the pets tab on the main menue, scroll down to pet planet, and watch the traing videos. There is a video about traing and adopting deafd dogs. Hope it helps! have fun with your new boxer.
