Sheepdog Dog Breed Information Profile
 Known as "the Bobtail" in Britain where this breed
originated about 200 years ago, the Old English Sheepdog is thought to
descend from a variety of European herding breeds. It was originally
developed by sheep farmers in the English West country to herd and drive
sheep to market. The practice of cropping the tail was started in order
to identify the breed as a working dog, which made it's owner exempt
from taxes. These highly intelligent, highly adorable dogs can also be
used as a soft-mouthed retriever with the proper training. Old English
Sheepdogs are broad and robust with a long, harsh, shaggy coat for which
the breed is renowned. The coat comes in shades of grey, grizzle, blue
or blue merled with or without white markings. Old English Sheepdogs are
wonderful family pets who love children and will play with and mind
(herd?) them form hours! Despite their size, these dogs are very agile,
measuring from 22 inches and up from the shoulder with females measuring
slightly less. If kept long, the coat needs a thorough daily brushing to
keep it shiny and tangle-free. It can also be kept short and easy to
care for with regular trips to the groomer for trimming - a great way to
keep your dog cool in the hot summer months. Old English Sheepdogs are
dependable family protectors, and are best suited to country living and
plenty of room to run out of doors.
