K9 Kobbi started training with RICSAR in the fall of 2018. Kobbi is the second Icelandic Sheepdog in North America to certify in a K9 Search and rescue discipline. We believe he is the only Icelandic Sheepdog in the world that is certified in water cadaver. His size and agility allow him to do things that many larger sized dogs cannot do. kobbi spent the first 4 years of his life living on a boat. Consequently, he is very comfortable around water and loves kayaking and tooling around in an rigid inflatable boat. His primary reward for training is food. Kobbi is literally a chow hound. He is very easy to train, loves to search for hidden tennis balls and enjoys having a frisbee thrown his way. By far, his favorite activity is Sunday team trainings. He always gives 110%.
