want info on OES

We have been looking into getting a OES, but we're worried, are they easy to train? We just moved into a new home, and reading some of the postings concern me. Do they really smell your house up, do they all have drooling problems, and do they all pee on themselves??
We are quite tollerable- we have an African Grey Parrot, who are known for the terrible twos syndrome. Pls advise us, and tell us if there are any books that can help us make this decision.

Vanda,

My OES is almost 11 months old now. She doesn't smell - we bath her about 1 time per month - she doesn't drool, although after eating or drinking a wipe with a rag is a good idea- and she is the smartest, easiest to train dog I have ever owned. Each dog is unique and each will have different "challanges", but if you are committed to spending the time on training a dog properly and understand their grooming requirements then an OES is a wonderful choice. When I was researching dog breeeds I found tons of information on the internet. Use a good search engine like google and type in Old English sheepdogs and you will have more information than you will know what to do with! Good luck with your decison.
