The Beijing Hearing Dog Association has a plan. They plan to choose some stray dogs(流浪狗)and train them. Then the dogs will be able to help the old and the deaf.
They will choose young dogs, because it' s easier to train them. The kind of dog is not important. Twenty-four volunteers will join the training. They all have some experience of keeping dogs and they all love dogs. They will learn a special language first from the coach(教练)and then teach the dogs. This training will take 180 days. Then the better-performed dogs will enter the next training. They will learn to understand different sounds, such as knocking on a door and water boiling. Then the dogs will live with the deaf or the old for 30 days.
Some people think the plan won' t work, because it will cost a lot of money. But some people like the plan and they would like to be the volunteers.
