The love of the Old English Sheepdog is special. Like many others the fabulous TV show" PLEASE DON'T EAT THE DAISIES" had a wonderful  sheepdog named "Lucky" in the TV series. (psst his real name is SAM). I remember as a little girl how I would look forward to seeing that furry, lovable sheepdog.

Finding a sheepdog  is a  relatively difficult task-finding a breeding sheepdog for sale  is incredibly challenging.

A given is proper conformation and good health- but there are other concerns...

A lot of the professional breeders require that you show your dog and finish them before they will allow you to use your dog as a breeder.

( I believe that the rationale for this is to reassure that the Old English Sheepdog is close to standard, with excellent conformation and skill sets to carry forward the breed in the future, as well as allow for time and knowledge to be exchanged as the attendance in the ring progresses).

Finding a breeder that will allow you to purchase breeding rights is a second challenge.

Finding a breeder that will allow you to own your own dog without co-owning them is the third challenge.

Finding a breeder that had the parents tested with great scores

tops the cake!

Now the Old English Sheepdog is on a soon to be extinct list- oh no!

We personally had two terrible experiences with breeders who presented  themselves like they were the best thing since sliced bread-they were not.

One breeder presented the health papers under duress. The papers were not even filled out properly by the veterinarian. We found that they were not following the rules of the road.

Second disaster involved people who took our money didn’t put the puppy on the  agreed-upon transportation, wreaked emotional havoc and  failed to return the money paid and so it goes.
