English Sheepdog - I can't see you |
Size: 60-100 lbs
Life expectancy: 10-12 years
Grooming: Constant brushing and grooming
Shedding: Slight shedding
Pros
Fluffy
Fun loving dog that's easy going and acts like a puppy for years
Herds people by bumping into them (that's just funny)
Easy to train
Cons
Really big for our apartment
Lots of work to take care of that coat
It actually sounds like a great dog, and a great companion to have. However, I'm concerned about the size and I'm not sure I can keep up with all that brushing work. What do you think? Let us know in the comments and please vote in the poll on the right.

What's next Sheep? He looks very big for an apartment. Would it be fair to keep a dog this big indoors most of the day? What is he going to herd? He will almost be as big as little Lesley. I don't know he is a long way from a corgi.
