Have you applied with any OES rescues or checked PetFinder?

Below are some rescues near us. Note that rescues don't always post all the sheepies that are available for adoption and it's important to get on their list. And it's a good idea to include in your information that you've never lost a pet or lost a pet to an accident if this is true.

We adopted a "special" sheepie from NEOESR and she flew to Detroit from Pennsylvania... she was from New Jersey. Not all rescues will fly their dogs... and it depends greatly on the individual dog.

Good luck to you in your search for a new sheepie companion.

Don't cry when you see sweet Jack in Indiana. God bless the relative took control and saved him and Indiana OES Rescue for taking this boy in to give him a second chance. :D He's one of the lucky ones to be saved just in time.

I checked the classifieds on Petfinder. There is a sheepie in Wisconsin that needs a home. It was posted on 4-16. The following is the information:

Need to re-home OLD ENGLISH SHEEP DOG registered, neutered 11 month old male. Shots, wormed, house trained, friendly. Looking for loving family, fenced yard and room to play. Too active for 78 year old grandmother. Adoption fee. Call 715-237-2268.
Are you guys seriously Danny and Sandy? Are Frenchie and Putzy living with you too?
Good luck with your search and hopefully your sheepdog will come to you soon!
I'll come home check you if a rescue calls for it. I live a few minutes away in Ferndale so I can probably be over in about 5 minutes! Do you guys ever go to the dog park at 12 and Campbell? We just went for the first time the other day and had a really good experience.

Um would you be interested in a 2 1/2 yr old petite female sheepie? I have one that I am fostering and if you pass the home visit and vet references - I could transport her at the end of May to St Louis, MO. If you are interested please go to oesrescuenetwork.com and fill out an adoption paperwork and you can also pm me for additional information regarding her.

Here is her picture and her name is Johnnie:

Awwwwww! I would!! :D
Just kidding... I think :( :lol:

I keep telling people that God seems to keep all the sheepies in need well away from me so I can only help out via long distance.

Dang... is she cute or what! :D
