 IN VERMONT  Meet Obi! More pictures and video below or to come! Obi is 2 1/2 years old, male (approx. DOB 12-12-22), 52 lbs., vetted, is or will be neutered and micro-chipped. Obi is the ultimate mix of adventure buddy and couch snuggler! This clever and affectionate pup is confident, gentle, and independent, making him a perfect companion for both outdoor hikes and cozy nights in. Obi is highly food motivated and eager to learn; he already knows "sit" and is almost ready to show off "down" and "shake." While he loves exploring and spending time with his person, he’s always ready to wind down for pets and sweet talk. Obi assessed well with other dogs at the shelter and has medium energy. Stay tuned for more information as Obi is a new rescue! If you are interested in adopting Obi, please fill out an Application at  www.Passion-4-Paws.org  (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks! Please note, Fosters have 1st option of Adoption. Check out Obi's Facebook Page and like us while you are there! Disclosure:   Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue.  Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance!   Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed.  Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.    November 9, 2025, 11:45 am
