Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Inca was born on the 15 March 2010 and trained to be a Hearing Dog supporting a deaf person fulfilling activities of daily living and trained to respond to sounds such as door bells and fire alarms as well as being a visual indicator of the owner being deaf when out and about.

Inca matched with Lisa in April 2012. Lisa had been struggling with social isolation, depression and low confidence.

Inca gave Lisa her confidence back, making a difference at work resulting in her MBE being awarded. Inca got to meet the then Duke of Cambridge at the investiture and later, the Princess Royal as well as Rachel Riley and other amazing people.

Inca retired in 2020 and remained with Lisa and Gary as a pet in their home and became big sister to Lima who took over supporting Lisa.

Inca sadly died on the 13 July 2023 after a lifetime of service as a hearing dog.

This is a fundraiser to recognise the legacy of Inca, a truly special dog and her work with Lisa
