I am new to the forum and have been enjoying it very much. I do not currently have an OES but I have been researching rescue dogs and when the right one comes along, I intend to offer him a home! I am a 30 year old artist/educator. I recently graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with an MFA in Painting. I also work for the college as a Portfolio Review Manager in the scholarship center. Besides art-related anything, interest include, but are mot limited to: obscure music, trash movies and boring books. Thanks to those of you who have already shared stories and answered questions in my posts and I look forward to a time when I can return the favor. Regards, Kevin |

OES are a man made breed, and so far from wild I really do not think they could survive if "in the wild". |
No way... their hair would become so matted, their mobility would be ruined by the mats, the skin would become infested, their ears infected...
We've seen what they look like after a year or so of neglect. It's not pretty. |
Clyde can't even function without treats or get up in the morning on his own. He won't be trying Outward Bound anytime soon. ![]() Welcome to the forum! Savannah's an awesome school. My assistant is finishing her degree at the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit so art and art schools are a regular topic of conversation for us! Obscure new music or obscure old music (old meaning within the last 25 years!)? |
My poor girl Rags' coat was one huge entire matt when I rescued her.
It took 6 1/2 hrs to shave her down...with breaks. The people had no idea on how to brush her... so she was not in the wild, but without grooming...etc...it's just not a pretty sight!! I cannot even imagine how awful one would look that had been in the wild for an extended period of time. |
Just want to say Welcome Kevin and Greetings from the Land downunder ![]() I hope your dreams come true and you have a sheepie to love very soon. ![]() Although they might not survive in the wild, they are the best as a family member in the right home ![]() |

Welcome to the forum, Kevin!!
I know you don't have your sheepie YET, but if you feel like making a little road trip, join us in Winston-Salem, NC on Saturday Sept 9th for a sheepie picnic!! ![]() There'll be plenty of sheepies there so you can have some "hands-on" time playing with them! ![]() Their uprights are a pretty fun crowd, too. ![]() If you're interested, PM me for directions! |
