If you have room in your heart to love, go for the puppy, as you will give the puppy the love that you had for your other lost baby, and being deaf, if that happens, can be overcome with just a little knowledge and patience. Dogs learn so quickly by hand signals, when i train my Emma, I use voice and hand signals, and she follows both very well.
My Emma was offered to me, with knowledge of medical problems, I am so happy and never regret taking her. The love I have received overcomes everything. Just a little extra effort, training and knwledge overcame everything. She is healthy, happy, michevious, plays and is the light of our lives.
I also heard from others, that someone else may have gotten her, if we had not taken her, and I know of those people, and they would not have taken the time and patience, she would have suffered. The thought of that breaks my heart.
Go for it, that puppy needs you. Keep us posted.
