From Townsville roots to Australia-wide impact: Our journey of dedication and unwavering love for special-needs canines.

Welcome to Hear No Evil Australian Deaf Dog Rescue. Established amidst the warm breezes of Townsville, QLD in 2014, our mission has been steadfast and clear: to advocate for, support, and love every deaf dog that enters our realm. Our operational scale might seem modest, but the depth of our compassion and the magnitude of our aspirations for the welfare of these special canines know no bounds.
Serving as a cornerstone in Australia for deaf and special-needs dogs, we are determined to ensure that no dog feels left out based on the length of their stay or any misunderstandings about their unique circumstances. Each animal deserves a home where they are cherished, understood, and loved beyond measure. It’s a heavy responsibility, and on the rare occasions when we face the challenging decision of euthanasia, it’s made with immense care, after thorough expert consultations, ensuring the overall well-being of the canine is prioritized.
Within our care, at Australian Deaf Dog Rescue, every dog is nurtured both in health and in spirit. We are dedicated to providing them with vital training using specialized techniques tailored to their needs. This not only equips them with essential life skills but also ensures they transition seamlessly into their forever homes, ready to form lasting bonds with their new families.
But our commitment isn’t limited to the boundaries of our facility. “Hear No Evil” also extends its hand as a hub of valuable information and expertise. Whether you’re a new adopter seeking guidance, a curious individual with questions about deaf dogs, or a long-time pet parent in need of support, we are here for you, ready to share our knowledge and experience.
Lastly but certainly not least, none of our endeavours would be possible without the unwavering support of our committed volunteers and foster carers. Their selflessness and dedication breathe life into our mission every day. For those inspired by our cause and looking to contribute, know that there’s always a space for you within the “Hear No Evil” family. Your involvement, in any capacity, can make waves of difference in the lives of these exceptional animals.
