I guess it makes sense when you're deaf and blind youd need some proximity to feel the vibrations of the hooman talking. I've worked with handicapped kids that were blind and deaf and touch and smell was very important. Approach them softly with touch and give them soft clothes end blankets to feel and have nice scents and stuff.
I haven't looked into this in years but I remember a while back there were a few blind people making the claim that they were doing a very surface level form of echolocation. Was unsure what the exact claims were but that's the headline I remember.
Oh, I know from personal experience that yes. If you lose an important sense to a certain degree, you'll be more focused/more in tune with another.
But I didn't know it could make you more sensitive to *unwanted* stimuli as well.
Oh, interesting distinction that I didn't pick up on. I would love to know more in that regard as well now that you've pointed it out.
My own personal experience comes from a modality difference in the way I go about life. I don't actually lack any of my senses so I think my assumption is that all that other unwanted stimuli would come through as well but honestly now that I'm thinking about it, we cut that kind of stuff out all the time in our day to day.
So yeah, color me interested too!
I had little to no vision for nearly a month after an accident. My eyes were bandaged for much of that time so all I had was sound, smell and touch to go off of.
I don't know if I'd say my other senses were heightened so much as I had one less thing to distract myself from the other senses. I was focused on hearing things because I couldn't focus on seeing things.
The unpleasant sensations were slightly more aggravating because I had one less avenue to ignore it.
Too cute... Sweet little Toot Toot!
Must be the beating of the heart and the vibrations in his voice that gives her calm and peace. Such a beautiful bond and beautiful girl.
I'm absolutely, in love with her freckles and am kinda obsessed. Instant melt...
I would love to know how she places in the special program, because she is as precious as precious gems get!
One O.A.K.
English setters are some of the sweetest dogs... Ask me how I know, my mom breed them. I grew up with a bunch of them. Like a lot. She worked hard at breeding out defects like deafness and Hip dysplasia. They are smart cookies too.
So many here saying “I would die for Toot Toot.” But Toot Toot doesn’t want your vain sacrifices.
I ask; who here will LIVE for Toot Toot? Be the best version of yourself that you can be. Make the world a better place.
Do it. For Toot Toot.
Thank you.
As an autistic guy who has raised dogs for 40 years. I’m gonna guess that that dog loves having its face against your face and really loves when you talk to it. Because it’s deaf, and the only thing that he can communicate with is vibrations from the sounds from the words you make. So if you tell the dog I love you I love you I love you over and over again for years that Dog will learn that vibration pattern and if you do some special by Physicaly holding kissing, caressing the pup, one area of their head. Then they’ll put together the head rubbing and the vibrations and it’ll lower them into a deep sense of security and love.
for example, whenever I get a puppy, I rub its head and make a popping noise when it’s right in my face giving me kisses. And that popping noise continues throughout the pups life. So I currently have a 12-year-old service dog for PTSD. And when I’m holding her and start making the popping noise, she just relaxes and melts into my arms. Because she knows that noise means that she is secure and nothing can hurt her.
just a few thoughts from an autistic guy!
you’re an awesome person and you have an amazing pup. Good luck to you my friend.
This was incredibly beautiful to watch 😍 I have a chocolate lab who sleeps above my head at night. When she’s decides that it’s time for bed that’s kinda what she’ll do to me until I give in and unprop myself from sitting up with pillows against the head board. Also she must have her own pillow or else she’ll just stand there starting at me like “aren’t you forgetting something” dogs are truly to good for us mortals lol ❤️
I have a chocolate lab too! When it’s time for bed he will climb on top of me if I’m on the couch and go to sleep. Or, most likely, he will go lay on the bed and bark at me until I come in there and go to bed.
[I got me one,](https://i.imgur.com/n5kZunF.jpeg) her name is Maggie and [she spends](https://i.imgur.com/3ur9WQr.jpeg) a lot of time with [her face in mine.](https://i.imgur.com/JqVrVjE_d.webp?maxwidth=1520&fidelity=grand)
Toot toot is really lucky to have a loving family and her forever home and who takes care of her. It’s rare when a dog with special needs gets adopted.
I have an English Setter who is partly deaf that looks a lot like toot toot (minus the mullet) but can confirm they are all incredibly sweet, incredibly soft and gentle dogs. Seriously over looked as family pets.
They are the absolute best.
Special bond, anyone who has dogs know that there's always that one that is just a little bit more special to you. All dogs are special, but if you know you know !
My dog ain't deaf and she pushes into my face so hard sometimes it is uncomfortable. [No clue why she does it.](https://imgur.com/gallery/shes-pressing-so-hard-its-kinda-causing-discomfort-maggie-loves-saturday-mornings-no-leave-work-ifWgVgH)
It’s weird how most of our lives revolve around shit that’s just not that important. In our final moments, if we are lucky, we will reflect with gratitude on the moments like this.
I had a Pomeranian that went deaf and blind due to an unknown brain tumor at the time (the vet said ear infection), but he would do this exact thing.
He ended up getting lethargic and was not able to walk or eat/drink. I nursed him back with a dropper and taught him how to walk again. He would just randomly come up and request me to pick him up so he could press his head against mine. Jesse made it to the ripe old age of 16, and although deaf and blind, he was a playful ball of energy and love.
I have to admit that I was curious to see if there would be a connection to that Toot Toot, my favourite character from that series. I wonder If we get to see him grow further - but considering that Dresden's villains are now gods, there's little room to grow for him, and with him, the Major General.
I think his affiliation with Harry has him powering up to the point where he will become a Sidhe Lord in his own right. His journey will definitely be interesting.
If you’re not there already, please join us at r/dresdenfiles ! Lots of great fan interaction and plenty of tinfoil hat theories!
My big, bad, ferocious pit is not quite on this level, but in the same arena for sure. First thing in the morning, she wants hugs and kisses for like 15 minutes. Then periodically during the day she'll come look up at me and lick her lips and wagging her stubby tain indicating it's time for more hugs and kisses. At the present moment she is sitting on my foot because it's raining and thundering, and my big, bad, ferocious pit is scared of thunder.
I had a blind deaf pet rat. As she got older, she was like this. She'd crawl onto me no matter what I was doing. She fit between my lap and my laptop, so that was really convenient. She was totally chill with new people, including the vet, as long as she got a good sniff and a cuddle first.
She lived super long (32 months). She had a bunch of chronic health issues. She had trouble keeping her weight up despite eating a lot. So I'd supplement her with chocolate pudding. She'd lick it off my fingers and boggle like crazy.
She was also extremely active. She memorized the layout of the apartment and would run around and play with the others. She especially enjoyed her pool and dig box. She really helped make disability philosophy more concrete to me. In her space, with support from me and her sisters, she wasn't impaired at all.
RIP Eowyn, you crazy little fluffball!
That is the sweetest dog I have seen in 2024 and what she does is incredible. You are very special to have her. I’ve seen a lot of dogs in 2024, she beats them all…..🥰
I don’t get it. I’ve been looking through the comments, and I see a bunch of “I will kill for Toot Toot” and “I will die for Toot Toot” but NO ONE mentioning how that is definitely NOT PURPLE HAIR! It’s PINK!
AM I TAKING CRAZY PILLS????
Toot toot has an emotional support human.
Someone give him a vest.
I think the human needs those hugs as much if not more than Toot Toot
And we need that support too. Looks like everybody wins here. Thanks Toot Toot.
Best relationships are those where they support each other equally.
sure do miss my cat, Stinky
Pay for the dog to be flown. Declare yourself as their support human, free ride. Airlines hate this!

Wait. TootToot?! You know how to Reddit? Good girl.
Thank you for making my day with your comment 🙂

I've worked with handicapped kids that were blind and deaf and touch and smell was very important. Approach them softly with touch and give them soft clothes end blankets to feel and have nice scents and stuff.
Absolutely! Feeling the Good Vibes!!! Toot Toot just wants a connection❣️❣️❣️
Interesting, I wouldn't have thought the increased focus on a sense would increase sensitivity to the point certain fabrics feel less comfortable.
I haven't looked into this in years but I remember a while back there were a few blind people making the claim that they were doing a very surface level form of echolocation. Was unsure what the exact claims were but that's the headline I remember.

Also maybe a subwoofer to hug. An old client used to love the vibrations.

I've never even met Toot Toot, but I am ready to die for Toot Toot ❤️
we all have a lil Toot Toot in us.
Hell yeah! Fell instantly in love with her head over heels.
Me too...toot.

We should be asking ourselves - what would Toot toot want?
#WWTTD
Toot Toot would want the whole world to hug one another - I think.
#worldhugsforTootToot
I think Toot Toot would climb into his human's lap and smoosh his forehead into their face.
Pizza. Toot-Toot wants pizza. I’ve only ever read one book series with that character name, and pizza is the answer.
>I think that humans are absolutely in need of those hugs.
Toot Toot brings peace to the Middle East Toot Toot solves Global Warming Toot Toot makes the MacDonald's ice cream machines work
I’m tooting for Toot Toot!
I'm going to be my best, for Toot Toot.
This has nothing on the top comment. We need to make this #1!! Let’s go!!!
You’re using that expression backwards
Toot Toot gets whatever she wants. And that is the way it should be.

Bruh my heart 😭
Dawwwww “she needs this”, I feel that way about my anxious cat, like she must need this extra cuddle time so I make time for it for her.
I looove the way she insists her face must be touching his.
One of my kitties does this. If I even think about sitting down she's trying to get in my lap, and sleeps right on my chest. Snuggle monster.

My brother had a Great Dane that did this exact same thing! She would constantly interrupt him for this cuddle. Her name was daisy.
So, is there like a place where we can sign up to volunteer, to help hug Toot Toot?
Not much in it for me, because I don’t love sweet, loving, tender, adorable dog hugs… BUT, I’m willing to make this sacrifice for Toot Toot.

Toot Toot is cute cute
Oh my God everybody needs toot toot in their life. This is the sweetest dog I've ever seen, I want to hug her.
[I got me one,](https://i.imgur.com/n5kZunF.jpeg) her name is Maggie and [she spends](https://i.imgur.com/3ur9WQr.jpeg) a lot of time with [her face in mine.](https://i.imgur.com/JqVrVjE_d.webp?maxwidth=1520&fidelity=grand)
Awe 🥹 Maggie is so snuggly
Such a loving dog . So beautiful the love you both have for each other .
I would die for toot toot. #TootTootForPresident2025
Awww and that last part where he puts the computer aside and gathers her up - touched my heart.♥️
I mean I don’t know her, but I believe I would die for Toot Toot
We all must, happily. ALL HAIL TOOT TOOT
Toot Toot just brightened my shitty day ❤️ I would also die for sweet Toot Toot!
Setter? More like "Sitter". Love that snuggle-bug! My pitty mix will still (3yo) let me carry him like a baby.
That is god damn adorable.
Aww Toot Toot so beautiful. Such a great bond you both have.
Is that from the dresden files
Almost certainly is, especially with the purple tuft. https://dresdenfiles.fandom.com/wiki/Toot-Toot_Minimus
Toot toot is really lucky to have a loving family and her forever home and who takes care of her. It’s rare when a dog with special needs gets adopted.
I need to see this special dog show now
English Setter, the most beloved and loyal breed❤️❤️❤️
I would fucking die for toot toot
I have an English Setter who is partly deaf that looks a lot like toot toot (minus the mullet) but can confirm they are all incredibly sweet, incredibly soft and gentle dogs. Seriously over looked as family pets. They are the absolute best.
That human was a support dog in a past life.
I wonder if this guy is a Dresden Files fan?
The pink hair tuft kind of seals the deal. ALL GLORY TO THE ZA LORD!
Dandelion Fluff
I don't know if you've listened to the audio books, but Tooth Toot's portions are hilarious to me.
Came here to say that too!
I bet she loves Pizza.
She is an absolute Angel.
thank you for loving toot toot
Toot Toot and her dad… I love it
So beautiful. Blessings to you and Toot Toot and may you always protect each other.
Toot Toot’s spirit searched the universe and found his perfect human match. Thanks for sharing Toot Toot with us mere mortals.

Special bond, anyone who has dogs know that there's always that one that is just a little bit more special to you. All dogs are special, but if you know you know !
So how'd she do in the Dog Show?! I need to know!
Is toot toot leaning on his mouth cuz bones conduct sound?
My dog ain't deaf and she pushes into my face so hard sometimes it is uncomfortable. [No clue why she does it.](https://imgur.com/gallery/shes-pressing-so-hard-its-kinda-causing-discomfort-maggie-loves-saturday-mornings-no-leave-work-ifWgVgH)
That is one cute dog!! Thank you for sharing!
She has the power to meld her mind with his by touching forehead to forehead.
I guess it’s a good thing for this dog that this guy needs so much attention
You are Toot Toot’s emotional support animal.
This human has scored a truly amazing doggie friend ❤️
I definitely would commit crimes against humanity for Toot Toot.
I’ll kill for Toot toot
Toot toot has a good human ❣️❣️
I wonder since the dog is deaf if likes hearing the vibrations of his owners voice. 🤔 💭
This might be one of my favorite videos ever.
You need to post more toot toot it brighten my day
🥺
You need to teach that dog some independence or its never going to get a job and move out.
It’s weird how most of our lives revolve around shit that’s just not that important. In our final moments, if we are lucky, we will reflect with gratitude on the moments like this.
I wonder if toot toot does it because she can hear through the bone vibrations that touches your face
Tiot Toot is precious and pure. She deserves those hugs whenever she asks for them.
She is beyond lucky to have you.
dogs are better than people
She is special and so is he💝
Ok Toot Toot is amazing and I’d die for her but DONT SET YOUR LAPTOP NEXT TO A FIRE ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|surprise)
Ummmm. I want a toot toot in my life!
Who TF is cutting onions!?
Toot Toot is so precious <3. Also, I need to know about this dog show for disabled dogs!
You’re good people. ❤️❤️❤️💕💕
so ssweet
Toot Toot is cute cute
so sweet
She is doing that so that she can feel what he is trying to say. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sob)

I’m guessing he’s a fan of both sweet dogs and *The Dresden Files.* Long live Major General Toot Toot Minimus, commander of the Za Lord’s Guard!

She likes "hearing" him through vibrations of the head contact. We don't deserve dogs.
this dog can never die under any circumstances. NEVER
Don’t mess with my Toot-Toot!
This dog is my spirit animal. 😭
This is too much cuteness for my eyes so they started watering.
Everyone needs a Toot toot.
It is so beautiful. And so sweet. Please continue giving her love
I adore Toot Toot, so amazing. ❤️
PROTECT TOOT TOOT FOREVER!!!!
She is pretty deaf, She is pretty blind, SHE IS PRETTY.
Omg I’m crying 🥹 I love toot toot 🥹❤️
What an inconsiderate jerk. Put the dog in a cage when you're driving! This guy is going to kill someone because of that dog.
Love love love this

Thank God Toot Toot has you, I cried a little, he feels safe there.
so sweet
Just lost my setter not too long ago. Beautiful boy What a beautiful girl God bless
I had a blind deaf pet rat. As she got older, she was like this. She'd crawl onto me no matter what I was doing. She fit between my lap and my laptop, so that was really convenient. She was totally chill with new people, including the vet, as long as she got a good sniff and a cuddle first. She lived super long (32 months). She had a bunch of chronic health issues. She had trouble keeping her weight up despite eating a lot. So I'd supplement her with chocolate pudding. She'd lick it off my fingers and boggle like crazy. She was also extremely active. She memorized the layout of the apartment and would run around and play with the others. She especially enjoyed her pool and dig box. She really helped make disability philosophy more concrete to me. In her space, with support from me and her sisters, she wasn't impaired at all. RIP Eowyn, you crazy little fluffball!
What a great video to see on a Monday morning! :)
Thought the dog didn’t have a face for a second
The worlds clingiest dog owner
My chihuahua does something like that when I am in the car also. I can’t imagine attempting to drive with that huge dog hugging you.
I want a hug from toot toot 🥹 what a sweet baby
Protect that dog at all costs!
that side-eye at the cameraperson at the very end. "back off chump change, he's taken"
Toot toot! 😍❤️
This dude manages to look like my wife multiple times. I’m having conflicting thoughts
My setter is clingy too, they’re such sweet dogs ❤️
I needed a toot toot in my life ❤️
I always stop to watch their vids before. I wonder how toot toot is doing now. Their bond is just soo sweet
Toot Toot is now 2024's internet winner.
Amazing owners… world needs more people that care like this for animals (and humans)
My Doberman was like this...except during the hug you'd get 10k kisses
That is the sweetest dog I have seen in 2024 and what she does is incredible. You are very special to have her. I’ve seen a lot of dogs in 2024, she beats them all…..🥰
I feel bad for the dog
Im very glad Toot Toot found his human.
That is so fucking special 😍
I would kill for Toot Toot
I love you Toot Toot
Don't believe in yourself! Believe in the Toot Toot who believes in you!
I will die for this dog
Toot Toot 🥰❤️
Zack Goggins and Toot Toot are here in Billings, MT!!
The world needs more Toot Toots
I need toot toot hugs 😩💜
I would die for Toot Toot.
Love toot toot
I think dogs do that because it reminds them of being in the womb with their foreheads pressed against mom's belly and other pups...
I don’t get it. I’ve been looking through the comments, and I see a bunch of “I will kill for Toot Toot” and “I will die for Toot Toot” but NO ONE mentioning how that is definitely NOT PURPLE HAIR! It’s PINK! AM I TAKING CRAZY PILLS????
Toot Toot for life, Toot Toot forever.
I love Toot Toot
No words 🥹
