He’s lucky to have you helping him gain confidence.

Is yours lab/border collie maybe? I have a lab/border collie mix, but mine is predominantly border collie and has 6 breeds in her.

I think border collie is known for being fearful.

I’m not sure what he is but definitely some sort of lab. I plan to get a dna test. He’s on the smaller side, about 35 pounds and don’t think he’ll get any bigger.

The white patch on the chest, the smaller feet, narrow ankles, feet turned out, and fear all remind me of border collies.

Border collies tend to be easy to train.

The joke is that border collies may as well bring their math books to training so they don’t get bored while the class gets organized.

Sounds like he might be some border collie! He’s very smart and learns quickly.

And labs… so loving. I’ve heard they are known for changing their behavior to suit your personality and needs.
