More: When we loste our jack Russell Ed our other Jack Zoe broke our heart crying and looking for Ed. We weren't quite ready but decided we needed to adopt a companion for Zoe. We found little Rudy on the county shelter web page and it was love at first sight. We quickly learned he had congenital deafness which we tackled with our own simple sign language. He was a quick learner, most people would never guess he was non hearing. He's loving, smart and a real ham. He and Zoe are best friends. He helped heall all our hearts.
