Before You Respond To An Old English Sheepdogs For Sale Sign

By Angela Hall


At this very moment in time you may be in the market for a pet, to be a new companion or one to replace the one you had. Earlier you may have seen an Old English Sheepdogs for sale sign and you are quietly thinking if you should get this breed or not. Prior to your final decision and commitment, do read on in this article for more information.

This dog breed is one that has been classified as a herding breed by dog societies everywhere. This is because it was really first used as a herding dog in the countryside. Although the herding traits have been bred out of most generations, you may get one that will exhibit herding behavior when it gets around small children or other pets. They will herd them by circling around them and pushing and nipping at them.

Although they are big and can make adequate watchdogs due to their deep and ringing bark, they are by no means guard dogs at all. In fact they are very polite to strangers, and at times they will exhibit timidity and skittishness also. So if you want a big dog for guarding, this breed is not it.

These are also extremely playful dogs, especially when they are younger. And given their size and rambunctiousness, it is only fit that they are also given the adequate space that they require. If trapped in smaller spaces they can be quite destructive and maybe even restless. This breed also requires at least one hour of outdoor exercise at the minimum.

These dogs can be stubborn as well and they will exhibit alpha male behavior if allowed to do so. It is thus recommended only for owners with strong personalities themselves also. Thus if you are one with a timid or shy personality this may not be the breed for you.

This dog is also very shaggy, and it will require a lot of grooming and clipping. Its fur will be prone to things getting stuck to it like dirt and such. It is also a dog that drools a lot all over the place. It is also a dog that is prone to farting a lot too.

Most of the negative personality traits in this breed can be avoided if you adopt one that is basically an adult already, for they will show their personalities outright. However, you can also get a puppy and just train out most of the negative traits with regular and intensive behavior sessions. This latter choice will take a lot of your time and money as well.

Health problems that will come out with this breed is mostly related to its thick coat of fur. It will require a lot of grooming and clipping, and brushing on a daily basis. Proper coat maintenance is also required during hot weather so that the dog can cool off properly. Likewise, hair around its eyes should be trimmed off so as to give it better vision and prevent eye infections as well.
