Though its exact lineage is debated, it's believed to have connections with the Scottish Bearded Collie and possibly the Russian Owtchar. Originally referred to as a drover, this breed was used for herding sheep and cattle to market. Due to their working status, their tails were docked, and they enjoyed tax exemptions. • The breed made its way to America in the 1880s thanks to Wm. Wade. By the early 20th century, the Old English Sheepdog was popular among America's elite, with several wealthy families breeding and showing them. • Temperament: • Old English Sheepdogs are known for their easygoing and affectionate nature. They are intelligent, social, and adaptable, making them excellent family pets. Their herding instincts often lead them to try and herd children or even their adult owners. Despite their large size, they are gentle and playful, thriving in a family environment with other pets. • Environment: • This breed loves being around people and other animals, so they should not be kept isolated in a kennel. They do best in a family setting where they can interact regularly with their loved ones. While they enjoy a less hectic home life, they are social dogs and appreciate spending time with their family members. • Exercise: • Old English Sheepdogs need regular exercise to stay healthy and happy. As puppies, they benefit from ample playtime and activity. Although their exercise needs may decrease with age, they still enjoy activities like obedience training, agility courses, and herding exercises. A consistent exercise routine will help maintain their physical and mental well-being. • Grooming: • Grooming an Old English Sheepdog requires a significant time investment. Their thick, long coat doesn’t shed on its own and needs regular brushing to prevent matting and debris accumulation. Regular trimming is also necessary to manage their fur length. Additionally, paying attention to dental hygiene is crucial, as the breed tends to drool, which can stain their coat. • If you're considering adding an Old English Sheepdog to your family, contact Petland Nashville today.
