We just found out that Blaze our newest baby (Feb 00) is deaf, all she does is HISS and nothing more. So I used the toy to squeek behind her and no response from her. She is loveable and playful, Ben and her are a twosome and Blaze chases the others to play and jumps on the back of Kodiak and ride for a short while until he gets tired of her. So we have 2 deaf ones and I just love them both as well as the others. She does love her banana chips and oil and no other treats.
