This story makes me crazy with so much love for Gobi and for Dion and his unrelenting pursuit. What a beautiful story. And the support and patience from Lucja during the process of getting Gobi home is remarkable!!!
Such a wonderful and beautiful story! Gobi is finally home and she looks incredibly happy. Cant wait for book. Thank you for sharing your story, and giving this awesome pup a permanent home.
I brought my pup to new zealand with me when I moved here from the US. I know how hard and stressful that was. Your journey for gobi has been much longer and I can only imagine the stress you're still letting go of. you and your understanding family have proven how deep of a soul you and they have. Thank you for the amazing journey so far. God bless you all
I am from South Africa and my sister and I have followed your journey with Gobi from where it started to your final destination Scotland!! We have tears in our eyes ALL the time. Dion thank you for sticking with Godi and never letting her down. YOU ARE A WONDERFUL MAN and Gobi and your wife and kitty cat are so lucky to have you. You are a SPECIAL MAN .... one of a few good ones!!
Gobi's fate likes my dog DoDo. I found a stray dog, I named him DoDO when he was 2 months old in 5 years ago in Shenzhen China. I couldn't bring him to go to my home in Hong Kong because my estate is not allowed to foster dogs under the estate law. I just asked for my friend in Shenzhen to foster DoDo in his rented apartment and I went back Shenzhen to see DoDo and brought some daily necessaries to DoDo every weekend. Surely DoDo built up closed relationship with my friend and me soon. In the July last year, I persuade my friend to bring DoDo to go back to his home in Sichuan for DoDo's forever home. From Shenzhen to Sichuan, it took more then 40 hours to bring DoDo to my friend's home by 3 buses with more then 1100km. Finally DoDo got his forever home and got extremely love with my friend's dad and daughter so DoDo got to be a chubby dog and need to be on diet now. Actually, DoDo is a very cleaver dog. He knew eat the Lai-Chi and Sweet Potato to bit off the skin the eat the pulp with teaching by nobody.
I just ordered the book on Amazon available June 13 and I'm proud to say I'm one of the people that did donations I know it was small but it was a donation to help Gobi!
Such a magnificent love story. Love that super sweet, cute, gentle dog Gobi very much. Love Dion and his wife too, they are good, kind-hearted people. Thank you Dion for supporting animal rescue centers In China. Best of love, peace, health, and happiness to All animals and animal-lovers like Dion in the world☺
What a very special pooch........I had a lump in my throat when Gobi couldn't cross the river to follow Dion and Dion went back to get her. It was all over at that point. What a perceptive dog who decided who her human was going to be. People can think I'm nuts if they want but there are some things that happen on a spiritual level that we can't explain but no explanation is necessary. One of God's creations asked another of God's creations to please help them and she used the only form of communication she had........That little Gobi is one extremely tough cookie to hang with Dion, running the whole way and never looked back. Did ya ever notice how dogs & cats never try to appeal to violent or evil people?? If your pets continue not to like someone or act like they feel threatened, you better act on that. Pets are smart about character. What a great story. Thank you Dion & family for bringing Gobi HOME. 💙💜🖤
I recently listened your book Finding Gobi, and what a wonderful story! I felt like I was right there with you two through every marathon, walk, and your journey home! It reminded me of when I adopted a dog during a military mission in Micronesia and brought him back to CA USA with me. I'm so happy to be able to catch up with you all and see for myself how wonderful a life you have already given Gobi. I wish you many Blessings and good times all around! Please hug her from her biggest fan in CA USA!!!

this is such a special rare incredible story. sometimes love can truly overcome utterly impossible odds. these are the rare jewels we are given that inspire and give hope when it seems impossible. with love we endure. love holds us on no matter how hard. thank you Gobi and Dion. Thank you Dion for seeing the miracle of her love for you for finding her and bringing her home.
What an amazing story. A real love. Gobi shows no cares as long as she's with her daddy. The world could crash and burn but she knows she would be safe if she's with him. She will put up with anything as long as you keep her with her daddy. Only GOD has as much love to give. God give all of you a long life.
Finally Home thank you for doing what you did you are an incredible person and let's thank Mum to you both are incredible wish there were more people like you in this world Cheers to Gobi my you have a good life❤❤❤😀
Dion I am a a fan of your book and videos.When I was reading your book I think in my head what theme should it be and I said(NEVER GIVE ING UP IN YOUR DREAMS OR JUST NEVER GIVING UP.I felt really sad when in the book It said Gobi is missing.All of my friends saw it at school and they always ask me if they can read it and I always say yes.You are a great dad for Gobi.In February 22,2018 there is a book fair at my school and I saw a Finding Gobi and I said in my head I will get my own copy.It cost $7.00.Hope you don't lose Gobi again.Here is another theme of your book when all of the people help you find you BFF pup or dog.Team Work Makes The Dream works.
Such a lovely story gobi is adorable i have 3 little dogs 2 are chows and i love them so much so i know how you feel about that fabulous little dog i hope you have many years together x
This video is gold! 🙌 Gobi is such a tough puppy! 💪 That long journey mustn't have been easy on a marathon runner dog like her! 🐶 BTW, I'm surprised to see how tiny she is! I love how your friends received you with champagne 😄 Has Gobi made peace with the cat? 😂🐱
To follow Gobi has been an adventure. He clearly decided who to follow and adopt. Are there any later update after this one. I'm sort of curious as to how he is getting along with your cat.
This story gives me happiness & joy 💝 I love you all Xx May I just mention a couple of critical points: love all animals and go vegan - my rescue dogs eat mostly a plant based diet and are as strong as an Ox plus the earth is a flat plane not a ‘globe’. No I’m not mad. I’m a Christian. God made animals for our companionship and Genesis describes the creation. Please read Genesis 🙏🐕🌸
