Perfect Puppies Make Perfect Family Pets
 
We hadn't bought a puppy in over 15 years since we've gotten our last 3 dogs from rescue groups.  Finding the right OES in rescue can be very hard, there aren't that many of them out there.  Also, I have a special requirement in that all of my dogs get certified as therapy dogs, so I wanted to also do that with our new OES.
 
I've trained dogs for 30 years so I knew what I was looking for in a breeder and a puppy.  No kennel puppy, no line breeding, The parents didn't need to be showdogs.  Temperament and health were top on my list.  I was looking for someone who really cared about her dogs, and wasn't breeding for the money.
 
I knew I had found what I wanted when I found Cotton Dog OES web site.  I watched Joey's web site for about 8 months while looking at several other sites, but kept coming back to Cotton Dogs.  Watching Joey's video's of her dogs and puppies are what sold me.  These puppies are loved, spoiled and given the best from the moment they are born.  The puppies are exposed to lots of people and other animals.
 
Our puppy Ripley is now almost 7 months old.  She is from Meadow's winter '08 litter.  She is everything I was looking for.  She loves the world and has a wonderful temperament.  She's one of the smartest dogs we've had (I've had working lines German Shepherds for years).   Joey is great to work with and is always available.  She really cares about her dogs even after they are sold.
 
We can't say enough positive things about Joey and Cotton Dogs.  I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great OES.

 5.05.05.05.05.0 Gracie Belle - Meadow's Dec 08 Puppy

Joey was extremly informative and helpful when it came time to pick my Gracie Belle. I was nervous since I was unable to go there to see the dogs and puppies for myself. She sent us pictures and videos often so we can see all the puppies and parents. She always answered my ?'s and sill does 7 months later. We had Gracie flown to NY and she was in such great condition upon arrival. She had her homeade blankie and toy from home with her. She is such a beautiful healthy puppy! I already referred my Brother and another family to her as well. My Brothers Family is thrilled with their little Beethoven. When people ask me if I was nervous about buying over the internet I tell them how I was just so comfortable with Joey from the first time I spoke to her. If you are looking for an OES I highly reccomend cottondogs like I already have for my friends and family. Thank you Cottondogs for our beautiful Gracie Belle!

  5.05.05.05.05.0 Winston

Winston is from Tula's summer 08 puppies. He is my 2nd OES. He is a wonderful,smart boy. He watches TV with me and will watch an entire show. Winston likes to help do laundry and will gather the cloths and put them in the basket for me. He understands so much and learns to do things quickly. He enjoys going to the ball park and he sets in the dugout and watches me play. He loves our family and likes to sleep with our daughter at night. He gets along with our other animals including cats. Joey raises her OES as family members so they have a wonderful start in life. I believe this is what helps make her puppies so special. Joey has always been available when I needed a question answered and always cares and follows up on her puppies. I highly recommend anyone interested in adding a OES to their family to contact Joey. Joey truly cares about all her dogs and you can count on her if there are any concerns or questions. Thanks Joey for Winston!!! Anne Estes

  5.05.05.05.05.0 Pampered & Prestigious members of the family

 

 We purchased our OES from Cottondogs & drove from Ar. It was a pleasant surprise to see the dogs enjoying the best room of the house. Barkley renamed Lady Kennsington was a breeze to housetrain & is well loved by our Vet's office & neighbors. If you're interested in an indoor new member of your family you will not be dissappointed. I've had OES all my life & I was impressed to see how well these dogs were cared for. They are so healthy! No biting or growling, great with children & other pets (we have parrots) a joy to have around.

5.05.05.05.05.0 great experience with puppy

We purchased a puppy from Cottondogs on line and had to have her shipped to another state. Not only was the purchase process very easy and organized , but the puppy was shipped with mommy's blanket and could tell she was very loved. She has been a wonderful addition to our family. Cottondogs also has been a reliable source for any questions regarding our puppy. Thank you Joey!

5.05.05.05.05.0 Proud owner of a Cottondogs Old English Sheep Dog

Our puppy now 5 months old has a wonderful temperment and we have had "zero" helth problems. The breed is extremely conscious with the pups and their families. When you visit them you not only see the pups but interact with the mother and father. This is my fifth Old English and I believe this is the best one I've ever had. Of course we do spoil him!

5.05.05.05.05.0 OUT STANDING OLD ENGLISH SHEEP DOG

Our Lola is from Tula's 5-2007 litter. Lola is absolutely perfect in every way. Temperament, amazing coat, great pigmentation, absolutely OUT STANDING quality! Joey is great to work with, she has a loving soul and it shows in her breedings. I love Joey's homeopathic approach in the care & breeding of her babies.

5.05.05.05.05.0 Highly Recommended Breeder!!

 

 We purchased our second OES, "Bear" from Joey in December of 2007 and could not be happier with our puppy and with Cottondogs. We had been looking for a local breeder for quite some time and were thrilled to find Cottondogs. Joey is amazing and was extremely helpful with all of our questions. She even sent bear home with a care package. It was so thoughtful and really demonstrates how much she cares for all of her puppies. They are all raised at home with her family and their three sheepdogs and they really do love each and every one of them. Our OES is now almost 5 months and is a wonderful dog. He is extremely intelligent and has a great personality. He loves people and other dogs and is eager to learn and is training very well. My other sheepie Stella is happy to have a friend and we hope to continue to grow our sheepie family. We were so happy with Cottondogs and would not consider buying from any other breeder!

5.05.05.05.05.0 The best puppies ever!

 

 My puppy, Bogie, was from the litter in December and I couldn't have asked for a better puppy or breeder. Joey helped me tremendously with all the questions I had. Bogie was my first puppy ever and she sent him with a care package that was extremely helpful! As a breeder she really knew the puppies individually and was able to help me decide which puppy would go best with me. Along with everything Joey gave us, she also gave him alot of love and that is why he's a large teddy bear that loves to give kisses.

5.05.05.05.05.0 Special Dog from a Special Breeder

 

 Our Jasmine is from the litter born Dec. 07. She is beautiful with two big blue eyes, the sweetest dispostion ever and so very smart. We are fortunate enough to live within driving distant of Joey. We visited Jasmine and her family when she was two weeks old. We saw first hand where and how these babies are raised. Inside a home, as part a family, surrounded by love and attention from the day they are born. We met Elvis, Tula, Meadow and all of Jasmine's litter mates. We now feel a part of this wonderful family. I had not had an OES for several years and Joey answered every question I ever had with kind patience. Jasmine has always been healthy and had great check-ups with our vet. He said she is a magnificant animal, but we knew that because we live with her. There is something very special about these beautiful animals and the very "special lady" who raises them. We hope to get another puppy from Joey soon.

5.05.05.05.05.0 Number One Breeder Of OES's

 

 If your looking for an oes, cottondogs is the place to look. I live in NC, about a year ago I was looking for my second oes. I found Charlie at Cottondogs. Once I made contact with them they were like family. I didn't meet my Charlie until he arrived via airplane. He is wonderful, great temperment, beautilful structure, and he loves to snuggle. Cottondogs sent me a package with pictures of Charlie since the day he was born. They also sent me many pictures of Tula and Elvis, I can honestly say Charlie looks just like his daddy. I just hope that when I am ready to look for my 3rd that I will still be able to find him at cottondogs.

5.05.05.05.05.0 Wonderful Breeder/Wonderful Dog

 

 We purchased our "Lollie" from the spring litter last summer. She is an amazing dog. She has excellent conformation to the Old English Sheepdog standard. I know if we were interested in showing, she would be show quality. She has two big beautiful blue eyes with nice black rimming. Her head is blocky and her coat is outstanding. Lollie has a very sweet personality and is very playful. She is great with kids and anyone else that will pay attention to her!!! Since she doesn't have a tail she wags her whole bottom!! She has been a very healthy dog with no health problems. We just love her, and Joey was great to work with. She will answer any questions you may have, and help you in any way possible. If you are looking for a great Old English to add to your family, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BREEDER!!

5.05.05.05.05.0 Excellent Breeder of OES

 

 Joey takes tremendous pride in her OES. I have two OES from the "07" litter Sierra and Murphy. Our vet said they are "beautiful specimens" and "well put together". They are very playful and loving. We have two smaller dogs and they get along beautifully. Sierra and Murphy are very gentle. They are not barkers and they love just hanging out with us. If you have the yard for two...I would take two. It is amazing how much fun they have together. Because of the care Joey gave them as puppies they came to us accustomed to going outside and training was easy.

5.05.05.05.05.0 I love my Cottondogs!!!

 

 Kelly Gemelli and Hanna Banana became a part of my family in January 2007. They are such a blessing, and we are so thankful to have them in our lives! Joey is an amazing "Mommy" to all of her dogs, and she loves these puppies with all of her heart. Kelly and Hanna are very well behaved gentle giants that love children and other family pets. They live among a household that has three cats, 2 chihuahuas, and a countless amount of kiddos running around on a daily basis. They are protective of their loved ones, but very friendly too. These sisters love to go for long trips in the car, and enjoy their time at the dog park every weekend! Thank you so much Joey for making our family complete! Sincerely, Hillary, Keitha, Courtney, Kelly, Hanna, and the rest of the gang!
