Despite being born deaf, PeeWee the bull terrier mix is undeniably intelligent. The deaf dog understands sign language and is quick to pick up new signs according to his family. Adorably, his whole family has learned sign language to communicate with him!

In one adorable video posted to TikTok, a six-year-old girl can be seen interacting with the deaf dog in the best way. After PeeWee fails to awaken when the light is turned on and off a few times, the young girl approaches him. She gently roses the slumbering pup. Then, she signs to tell the deaf dog that it is time to go potty. 

The heartwarming video has been liked over 120,000 times on TikTok. Many people commended the little girl for being so gentle with the deaf dog when she woke him up. “Look how gentle she is,” commented Anouk Shanice. Avi said, “My heart just melted.”
