Jamie, try a small radio mic. Then you could call Sherpa back more easily. The receiver part on his collar.
Heβs not deaf heβs ignoring you, πππππππππππβ€β€
Itβs funny when Sherpa gets in the van I sway with him trying to give him the umff to get up on the seat bless him
Whatever e-collar you get, Jamie, it should probably be waterproof. And that might mean biggerβ¦
Amazon US has a remote walk-in talkie built in to collar so you could give voice commands
Sherpa sounds like me he has a one tracked mind, if he's focusing on something he can't hear anything else.π π π It's okay Sherpa I do the same thing
We have a lot on US Amazon that are small units and wouldn't get in the way too much. But they are separate collars and include shock as well as beep and vibrate. Can link them if you want
5:30 Are you parked in a handicapped space again? Why?
You could always get something like a Tile device as you can have them make a noise by simply using the app, although not sure what the range of them is.
Definitely could be selective hearing…. I would assume since hes getting older that he may be losing a little hearing though. Getting old is hard ..ππ
Greetings, Jamie. I hate to suggest more work but similar to making the first step to the seat longer, what about making the step into the VA longer? Just a thought.
Typo, I meant van.
Lord Sherpa is using selective hearing. his legs are moving and he's on a mission to get outside. try the dog whistle
Would something that vibrates mildly rather than beeps maybe better
Just get a long lead line for him. He will still run free but you will be able to keep him safe.

Sherpy lot's of love β€οΈ from India
Will batdog be allowed to borrow the new sherpamobile?
Just about anything you find for his collar will only have up to 700 feet range
I'd try a rescue whistle like the kind attached to a life preserver. I use one in a crowded ice rink where I guard and it gets EVERYONES attention. Or a find my keys beeper.
I think you may well be seeing what we call 'age related selected hearing' and if it is that then Sherpa is choosing to act like he did not hear a request or command to do something he is either not feeling up to doing or just does not want to do.
But before deciding that Sherpa is just hearing what he wants to hear there are some things to check.
One of the best things to do is start keeping a diary of when he appears not to be hearing things and when he does things that lets you know he is. What sounds he reacts to and which ones he does not. Does he sleep through all sounds, unless nudged or touched or hears food being prepared?
Check with your vet to see if any of the various medication he is taking can have auditory side effects. Dogs are really good a blocking auditory side effects like tintinitis or humming or buzzing caused by medications and when they block those sounds they block almist everything else in the same ranges including human voices.
Also ask your vet to check his ears, deep down in the horizontal canal to make sure that here is not infection or blockage acting like an ear plug that needs to be cleaned out. Senior dogs often have issue getting that horizontal canal to drain and can have problems hearing as everything can sound like they are hearing underwater.
There are various ways to test a canines hearing, from some simple things any vet can do, to more technological methods that you probably need to be seen at a specialty vet for.
Sometimes a vet will just go ahead with a good ear wash and see if that solves it, but having a diary from youn listing those times when Sherpa does not seem to hear or react can also help you figure out what is going on. It really may not be anything more than some plugged ear canals, or senior selective hearing, but its worth looking into as it could possibly point to other things you would want to catch early.
What about those little vibrating box that attaches to dog collar that do a quick shudder to let your dog know your calling them. Some use those to train their dogs with. Ceasar millan dog trainer has used them.

Rocking the blue Sherpa β€
My daddy named his trucks. Big John and little pup were his favorites. Old teller was another truck as well. Lol and smh.
Not a red car !!! π
When my lovely Mika started going deaf, hand clapping became the only way to attract her attention. Have you tried that with Sherps?
Can you ask your vet about it also to see she or he can tell you okay??? April
Jamie how is Sherpa's joints, I feel if he's struggling to go up and down it may be that. I'm just curious. I'd suggest a vibration collar, it vibrates when you trigger it. it's humane and doesn't rely on sound, which can work if he does lose his hearing, and you can train him to use the vibration as a trigger.
I think he wants he just wants to do what he wants to do he's getting old, he's conserving his energy by not listening to you.

Hi Jamie and Sherpa I know a Military K9 Trainer
They are the best dog trainers. I'd recommend talking with them about Sherpas hearing and what you guys need.. Much π from California
πππ
It is so sad to see Sherpa age! He has had the best life with you! I hope the hydro helps him have many more years with you!β€β€
Wee man. Love him
I live on 15 acres out in the middle of nowhere. I use a small whistle that is extremely loud. Got it from Amazon. It works great for my five dogs when they go out exploring our pastures and woods. My neighbor that is a half a mile away can even hear it.
You are looking for a GPS tracker my mom uses one for her dog you don't need anything big because you use a app to find him or get his attention you just hook the device to his collar
