Hearing Dog Application Process

1.
Download, print and mail completed Hearing Dog Application, waiver and Audiologist Questionnaire (completed by your audiologist) with a recent audiogram (hearing test)

2.
We will notify you by e-mail or phone when your application is received. Within one week of receiving and reviewing your application, you may be mailed out additional forms.

3.
When we receive your additional forms, we will notify you to schedule a home visit with an instructor and dog-in-training. This process may take up to three months depending on your location and staff availability.

We strive to create a safe, comfortable space in which to ask questions and understand how a Hearing Dog can best help you.

4.
If our program is not going to be the best fit for you, we will make other recommendations where we can.

5.
Approved applicants will be placed on a wait list and we will check-in by e-mail every 3 months until you are notified of a dog match.

Wait times vary but can be up to a year.
