General information
In general, impaired hearing with age is normal in dogs with an onset at 8-10 years. Early Adult Onset Deafness (EAOD) is a hearing disease in Border Collies and has an early onset at 3-5 years. EAOD is considered to be problematic, in especially working Border Collies, because hearing slight differences in tones is essential to the function of a working Border Collie. Even moderate hearing loss can already have a major impact on working ability.
