"Travels With Hearing Dog" will be a blog about my life as a person with a severe hearing loss who will be living and traveling full time in a motorhome with my husband and service dog, Cherelle. Cherelle, aka "Cher" is a Hearing Dog trained to help me be aware of important sounds in my environment.  She and I will have been together for six years as of April 2013. As it happens that will also be the month my husband and I put our house on the market and sell most of our belongings in preparation for life on the road.

If you have ever wondered what life is like for someone who lives with and depends on a service dog, or if you just love dogs, stay tuned as Cher and I travel throughout the United States. She and I will  face the challenges that people teamed with service dogs frequently encounter. There will be heartwarming stories too and funny incidences that comes with traveling with any dog, service or not.

We invite you to join us when this blog becomes active sometime in spring of 2013.

"Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are going to get."
