International Hearing Dog, Inc.’s mission is to train and place hearing dogs with persons who are deaf or hard-of-hearing, with and without multiple disabilities, at no charge to the recipient. IHDI is a nonprofit organization fully funded by donations. Chopper, a hearing dog, will put on a demonstration of his training at the old Falcon Middle School Gymnasium on Swingline Road in Falcon July 22 at the Falcon Lions Club meeting at 7 p.m. Children are welcome to attend. The cost to train a dog is $6,000 and there is a waiting list of six months to a year before placement to his new owner and home. Contact Jane at 719-495-6540 for more information.
