English Cocker Spaniel Forum:
Deafness

Looking for advise. My AKC Cocker, Charley, ten years old, apparently went deaf in the last couple days. I plan to see a vet tomorrow but wonder how common this is and if there is any recourse. I suspected his hearing was slipping but for him to go totally deaf overnite is pretty hard for me to take cause we carried on a conversation almost all day long. Now he watches me continuously almost like he is waiting for me to say something. Any comments will be appreciated.
