On one of the group's recent trips to Disneyland, they arranged a very special moment for a boy who is deaf. "The family arranged to have an ASL translator present during this trip to Disneyland, however, the characters were not briefed on the visit before the child got there," a representative of Olive Crest told ABC. The child got the chance to meet Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto. At first, he tries to talk to Pluto using sign language, but the ‘pup’ responds with a wave of his ear.
