It’s amazing what you can achieve with persistence, a bit of chopped liver and a second hand teddy bear…
In 2002 Michael, a deafened man from the New Forest, lost his home, his marriage, his business and his father – but he can’t actually remember if it was in that order. However, in the same year someone suggested that getting a dog might be a good idea – not just any dog, but a Hearing Dog from Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. And when, in 2004, Michael was presented with a Hearing Dog of his own called Matt, he just knew life would be so much easier. Amazing how wrong you can be, isn’t it!
If It Wasn’t For That Dog is the story of Matt’s first year with Michael, the challenges and accomplishments of climbing the Hearing Dog learning curve, the profound changes he stimulated and the inestimable joy he confers magically on everyone who meets him. But most of all it is the story of the strange power of meaty treats to work miracles in doggie behaviour.
