Welcome to the forum, Tina and pup. We are on our 3rd OES, and I wish I would have found this site years ago. We were dog experienced, but Oliver was our 1st OES and 1st herding dog. Feel free to ask away, there is a ton of experience here :) .
Hello Dawn, Thanks I have had dogs before, but never a herding dog. His name is Mr.Willson. I do have lost of questions. Thanks ,Tina
Welcome, Tina.

I'm relatively new here, too, but I've had sheepdogs for the past 14 years.

Some good places to start on this forum would be behavior, and grooming. The posters here are really helpful and friendly--and very generous with their experience and expertise. I'm finding lots of helpful hints here, myself.

How's the house training going? Any issues? Grooming? I ask because those are the common questions people have.

We were really lucky that our first OES was such a sweet and easy dog. So was our second dog who is now seven. Currently we are raising 2 OES puppies and are finding these puppies to be extra challenging.
Welcome Tina, glad you found this forum, lot's of members with great advice and help, so this being your first sheepie ask away, always someone here to help with anything sheepie. :wink:

You have found a support group that will be with you through good and bad. Whether its for your dog, you, home decorating, and YES, even SHOES!

Welcome to the wonderful world of Sheepdogs! Once you've had em' you just can't stand to be without em'! They are a breed of their own!
