Deaf therapy dog becomes star of school Christmas concert

VINELAND, N.J. – A therapy dog became the star of the show after taking part in a school Christmas concert.

Cole, who is deaf, was dressed up in Christmas-themed outfits as children around him sang festive songs. 

Cole the Deaf Dog is a Pitbull mix therapy dog who works at Dr. William Mennies School in Vineland. Hannah adopted Cole nearly seven years ago.

“Cole can’t hear with his ears, but he can hear with his heart,” Chris Hannah, a music teacher and Cole’s owner, said. “It’s such an honor for a dog that was born with a disability and is now a full-time school therapy dog, amongst so many other jobs. It’s just a dream come true; it really is.”

The ASPCA announced Cole as its national “Dog of the Year.”
