Old English Sheepdog temperament
OES are typically good-natured and easygoing, but their size combined with a heavy coat means sessions tend to run long, and patience matters as much as cooperation.
Grooming a Old English Sheepdog
This is one of the highest matting-risk coats on this list - the dense double coat needs thorough brushing down to the skin multiple times a week, and a lapse of even a couple weeks can mean a full shave-down for the dog's comfort.
How often does a Old English Sheepdog need grooming?
Every 8-12 weeks, with a de-shedding treatment during spring and fall shedding season.
Watch for matting
A Old English Sheepdog's coat mats easily if brushing lapses. Severe matting typically adds $44 or more and can mean a full shave-down for your dog's comfort and safety, since careful de-matting takes real table time. See the matting guide for what each severity level looks like.
