Deafinitely Awesome is the uplifting story of a tiny orphaned puppy and the woman who takes him in, changing both their lives forever. Acorn is completely out of control when he is brought to the city kennel. Cute as he is, no-one wants to adopt him because he just wont listen. But then an experienced volunteer named Mary decides to take him home just for a night - to give the kennel staff a break. Thats when she discovers that Acorn doesnt listen because Acorn cant hear. Acorn is profoundly deaf. Determined to prepare the little dog for adoption, Mary develops a sign language just for him and, in short order, teaches him everything a well-trained dog needs to know. Along the way, she falls in love and the two become a team, reaching out to help other deaf dogs shine. Follow Acorn as Marys love transforms him from an incorrigible puppy no-one wants into a smart, attentive companion with movie-star looks and a wicked sense of humor who proves every day that being deaf is not a limitation, that shelter dogs make great family pets and that pit bulls are just dogs with big heads.
