Having had six OESs over the last 37 years our last two died in February and March this year - yes, just 4 weeks apart. They were 10, brother and sister, and life is so sad, empty and lonely without them. Thought we'd cope but we're not and so we'd like to offer a loving home to an older OES (always had puppies before), preferably a girl. She's got to like cuddles, good food, walks, caravanning, cottage holidays and being the centre of our world. If anyone knows of such a divine creature then please let me know. Although we are in Suffolk we are prepared to travel for the right young lady.   Thank you.

Have you tried Old English Sheepdog Rescue and Welfare? There appear to be several branches throughout the country. The KC list 19 OES rescue contacts - though some are in Scotland.
