Your dog can hear so why would you teach him/her hand signals?

I have always taught my dogs hand signals simultaneous to voice commands, even prior to having deaf dogs.

This comes in handy (pun intended) when you need to communicate to your dog across a room, across a distance, when a baby is sleeping, any time you need to be quiet.

It becomes invaluable if your beloved dog becomes deaf in their senior years. If you’ve always used signs to communicate you know that when you sign to them that you love them they can still feel your words. You are able to continue effectively communicating with your now deaf dog negating any frustrations for you or your dog due to the sensory loss.

You do not have to do asl, you can come up with your own signs. Just make sure you have a cheat sheet for anyone who may care for your dog. We use modified asl for our dogs as we only do signs with one hand. YouTube is a great resource for coming up with hand signals!

As always, I am glad to answer questions or offer help any time!

We teach our dog hand signs because there’s never too many ways to say “I love you!”

Where did the name Dog Knows Art come from? I think it’s time I tell you! In 2013 on a very, very rainy day while waiting in the high school parking lot for my kids to emerge I met the love of my life, my soul dog, my most loyal friend, Danger. He was a semi fluffy beagle colored mutt getting soaking wet and wandering aimlessly. I opened my car door and invited him in and he promptly curled up in the front seat (Much to the surprise of the emerging kids). We tried to find his owners with a social media search and by contacting all of the local veterinarians to no avail. I never meant to keep him but it took about 3 days before I knew we were meant for each other. By some twist of fate I did end up finding his owners about a month and a half later and found out that they were intending to shoot him the next day had he not run away. He had a bite history (which I also experienced) and they thought it was best for everyone involved. It wasn’t. He just needed to find where he belonged and he belonged with me.

We went on so many adventures together. We saw oceans and deserts, city lights and country roads. We went on a brew pub tour across 5 states. We hiked, we ran, we spent quiet nights at home. He was the best friend I have ever had. In 2018 I lost him to a brain tumor and for three years I refused to wash the windows in my car because it had his nose prints all over it. I always explained “That’s my dog’s nose art.” It was the most priceless art I’ve ever seen. Leif and I started our Etsy shop not long after I lost Danger. We weren’t quite sure what direction we wanted to go with it but we both loved creating and we both loved art. Why not name it after the most precious art that we have but we put a punny twist on it to keep it original. That is how Dog Knows Art was born. Now that I have found my niche making something I love the name is even more perfect!

And in case you ever wondered how I ended up with Great Danes….the hole Danger left behind could only be filled by something really, REALLY big J

Here is my beautiful boy whom I still miss every single day

Happy New Year Everyone! First I wanted to let you know that January’s donation will be going to Misspits Rescue. She is a wonderful sanctuary for so many animals!

I also thought I would take a minute and tell you all my goals for Dog Knows Art in 2023 ♥️

In 2022 I became skilled and found all the right parts to guarantee a beautiful, sturdy product. Now I just need to become faster:)

Superficially: This year I’d like to make enough money to cover the cost to make my collars lol, I am also hoping to some day replace the couches my pups claws managed to rip 😬

More importantly, I am really hoping to start a foundation to help rescue adopters AFTER they have adopted. I.E. help with training and vet bills.

I would also love to establish a network of foster homes for urgent situations - Let me know if you are interested!

Social Media: I’d love to see the collar group knows art collar group. tagged in all the “give me collar recommendation” posts out there!

The dogs and I are going to continue to work on our content here, on Instagram (dogknowsart) and on tik tok (dog knows art). The dark secret is….I hate doing it. I’m old. The social media thing feels weird but I do love showing off the dogs.

The one thing I DO love about social media is connecting with other dog lovers and small business owners and I am hoping to do some partnerships this year!

Photography! I am hoping to really improve my photo skills. You’ll all have to let me know how I do.

We have a lot of new members in the group (so exciting!!) and I will create an introduction/welcome post later but I am so excited to have you!

Thank you everyone! I can’t wait to grow with you all this year!

Here is Jeff and some Jeff art to start your day!
