As Barbara Biggs sees it, her dog Anna hasn't really had a chance to be just a dog in more than nine years.
The medium-sized red heeler/Labrador mix with the constantly pricked ears gazes up at Biggs from her place on the rug in their Eastern Oregon home.
``Anna always has had to be waiting for something to happen. She's never just laid around,'' Biggs said.
Anna is a service dog, trained by Dogs for the Deaf to be Biggs' vigilant ears. She is certified by the training center to accompany Biggs into public buildings and let her know what is happening in a world that Biggs can barely hear after losing 90 percent of her hearing at age 6.
