Below you see Diane being helped up by her Hearing Dog Pepe. Pepe is picking up an item that Diane dropped. Often a hearing impaired person will drop something (i.e., credit card, money) and not know it, because they do not hear the item fallout of their pocket.

Pepe stops next to the item, which alerts Diane that something has happened. She then realizes she has dropped an item and gives Pepe the command 'fetch'. Pepe will pick up the item, hold it until given the command 'give'.
