Focus - the un-border collie

Has now earned his Delta therapy dog certification. 

When I told Scott (the Delta tester) that I wanted to test my border collie, he tried to hide it, but I saw him wince.  After the test, he came over and talked about  his surprise at how controlled and calm Focus was.

Focus is special in a lot of ways - I have called him the walmart greeter, or the lab in the bc suit - he is different than my other bcs. 

I love his drive and single minded determination in agility and disc dog, I love his ability to wag his whole butt when greeting friends.  I love his obsessive abandon in dock diving. And most of all, I love his ability to turn it all off when I ask.
