The agility people say that he is one of a kind.
"They say that most BC's get lost in the crowd but O'my has something about him that makes him stand out not just looks but attitude and personality. That makes me feel good. All of my dobes were the same way. You knew they were coming from a distance and most people never forgot them.
That's my BOY!!!"

"The Visor, I love it!!!!! people think I glued them (his ears) that way. Nope 100% natural."
What Lois says about O'my . . .
Oh my, what can I say. He is an O'my if there ever was one. My boy is starting his agility training and doing very well at it. Sometimes I feel for the boy having me as his handler as I know he could do so much more with an accomplished handler.
He turns heads everywhere he goes. Not just because of his looks but because of his attitude. His nick name is Elvis. When he is happy he gets his hips swinging and looks likes he is doing a dance.
O'my has started training for Rally Obedience. He thinks this is a big waste of an hour of his life that he will never get back!
I feel so lucky to have O'my, as he is my first Border Collie and he is making it so easy for me. When we work, he is all there and when we are done, he is in off mode. I have been told that is what you want in a BC and I was lucky to get it. On the other hand if I don't stop, the boy would train forever. When training, I have to keep an eye on my watch so I don't over do it because he won't give up.
When O'my came to me he was an only dog for six months. I then got 2 Doberman pups. Not a wise thing but it is what it is.
So O'my is now the senior dog at 10 months. The girls are 9 and 5 months. At first his nose was out of joint, but he is now being the best big brother he can be.
I can't wait to see what the future holds for us!
