This is Obi.

Obi had a traumatic start to life in Croatia where his litter mates were killed and he was the only survivor along with his mum. Obi was injured and unfortunately his left eye couldn’t be saved. After months of vet checks and documents being organised he was brought to the UK where he found his forever home and love with Kay. He has gradually come to terms with everything that is different to the world he knew. Such as traffic, people who care about him, other dogs and men. Obi made friends with Steve which was extremely heartwarming and emotional given his fear of men.
He has attended classes and found an ability to trust his surroundings, the handlers/dogs in his class and is eager to learn.

Obi is a true reflection on what a beautifully natured dog looks like. He couldn’t have done it without his mum, Kay and no doubt he will continue to shine ✨

It’s crazy what a little bit of love can do ❤️🐾

🌟 A big well done to Lenny and Cyrus 🌟Puppy Foundation Award 🥉

Cyrus is such a happy little chap! Border Collies need so much mental stimulation which means they will get a lot out of training! Not just for obedience training but it really pushes them to think and focus and this breed thrives on pleasing their owners 🙌🏼

Well done team 👏🏼🐾
