Haverlands Old English Sheepdogs

We have owned and been absolutely besotted by Old English Sheepdogs for well over 20 years. 

We live on a smallholding on the South Yorkshire/ East Yorkshire borders where our dogs are allowed to run freely

 and mix happily with our spotted Appaloosa horses and our cats and poultry.

Our dogs are rarely on leads but being the breed it is they are 100% dedicated to us and know every inch of our farm.

When we are mucking out stables our dogs are right there with us and for every journey to the muck pile our dogs manage at least two and are brilliant at second guessing our every move.

Without exception our dogs are glad to be alive and love the freedom we allow them... and they bloom!

Our band is ever increasing and at this point that we are currently owned by 9 beautiful bobtails.

The oldest of our motley crew is grandmother, Jade who is still very spritely and albeit a little rotund now and possible enjoying her senility,

but we love her and she's a happy old dear.

We also have two of her daughters, one from her first ever litter (Brie) and two from later on (Millie)

 Next we have Brie's daughter Pagan and her best friend Buffy who was bought in to dilute our bloodlines

 together with Jessica and Domino who have the longest waggiest tails in the world. 

Our band concludes with our two big bear dogs. Both are soft and so very different.

Dan has been with us since a puppy and is loving and very active. He loves to play with anything and anybody.

He plays ball, tugga and bounces everywhere he goes and definitely carries the OES wiggle !

Tigga was bought in as a young adult dog. He's huge for a bobtail, the old fashioned stamp of a dog that I remember so well as a child.

Big, chunky and daft! He lopes everywhere and is much more a steady dog than Dan.

All our dogs are gentle and adore people. We wouldn't have it any other way !

Although we don't show much now (we concentrate on our horses)

we do actively support the North Western OES Club

Our oldest girl Jade has bloodlines that trace back to Scandinvian champions.

Her sire Ch Krisina Trojan Warrior was by the Scandinavian Champion Alexander Nikita

and his line traces back to American 'Rivermist' champion dogs.

Obviously Jade's daughters all carry the same blood but with outcrossing also carry lines from Oakfarm, Zottels and Bobbinton.

Brie's grandsire being the Crufts Three times Best of Breed winner Ch Bobbington Latin Lover.

Buffy was bought in to bring new blood into our program and she carries lines from Oldoak, Wildahar and Kerjalee.

All our dogs come from lines of low hip scoring stock and have the kindest temperaments.

When we do choose to breed we are very mindful of reproducing these attributes

If you are interested in a bobtail puppy then please do let us know. 

We may be able to steer you in the right direction of a good litter or we are just happy to chat to like minded people !
