Meet the breeder
I'm Sarah S., the breeder behind Yadah Sheepdogs located in Tulsa, OK. All of our dogs are well-beloved members of the family. They get walks, taken on car rides, brushed every few days, bathed often, & played with. The mothers demonstrate to their puppies proper manners & introduce them to the home life that they will know when they go to their new homes.
Q. & A. with Sarah
Why did you start breeding?
When I married my husband he had his 3rd OES and I fell in love with that dog's calm, loyal, quiet, shadow-like disposition. I knew that I had to breed these dogs so we have sought partnerships with longterm preservation breeders to build our program. We seek to breed dogs with calm, docile, level temperaments, and breed correct conformation with clear OFA health testing.What makes your program special?
- Lifelong Personal Communication & Support - High Quality meat-based Food - Home Raised - Genetic & OFA Health Tested - Champion AKC & Import Bloodlines - High Focus on Temperament Testing & SelectionWhat are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are gray and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent dogs
Joy, mom
Old English Sheepdog
About Joy
Joy is super calm, very sweet, docile, and especially goofy/silly. She greets us every morning in the hallway with her butt wiggles and happy face. Absolutely the best temperament on this girl. She is very square, has fantastic coat texture, good leg angulation, and beautiful reach/drive. She has strong motherly instincts and she will play with puppies all day, but also teaches them limits. Her puppies will come to you well adjusted and socialized.
Excellent health testing

Parent health testing
Great level
Yadah Sheepdogs reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Old English Sheepdogs.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Thyroid (Autoimmune Thyroiditis, registered with OFA), Congenital Deafness (BAER, registered with OFA), Vet Wellness Exam
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
Multiple Drug Sensitivity (MDR1), Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia, Kartagner Syndrome (PCD), Hereditary Ataxia, Cerebellar Ataxia, Exercise Induced Collapse (EIC), Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), Full Embark Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
