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.
You will be notified by e-mail or phone when your application is received and reviewed by our team. Next step: you will be mailed a personal reference form and medical questionnaire (if applicable).
3.
After receiving and reviewing your completed supplemental form(s), we will schedule a home visit with an instructor and dog-in-training.
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.
