Teach her hand signals. Lots of deaf dogs do just fine using hand signals.

Puppy update
With Gabby I put in a stuffed animal the same size as her littermates. She
would lay down with her head on it and go right to sleep then.

How do I handle this?
Have you mentioned to his vet that this occurs when he's on a higher dose?
Maybe there is another medication that can be used with out the side effects
this one has?

DO NOT cut the dose quicker then the vet tells you to. Dropping this med
too soon can cause worse problems than you have right now.
Take the time and do it correctly!!!!!!!!!!!

I would reply and say yes but only if they let you use it on them first.
I don't have a problem with these if they are used correctly. Obviously
this woman does not know what that is.
