Hello! That sounds like a question from a fellow sheepie owner -- are you? Do tell! I don't feed supplements but then my dogs probably weren't the ones you were talking about. Are you feeding your dog a high quality diet? I have seen many people recommend "The Missing Link." |
Our girl is a year old rescue O.E.S . I've been feeding Iams, some eggs, occasional brown rice, small amounts of brewer's yeast.
Maudie is not a show dog, just a family pet. We just want her coat to be as healthy as it can be! |
Welcome to the forum!
Join us so you can post pics of YOUR beautiful OES Maudie, too!!! Registration is free, easy and we don't usually bite or growl. |
Thanks! I will! |
Yay! Pictures please!!
Mine are both rescue dogs that serve solely as pets. I adopted Maggie at 1 year old and Chumley when she was 8.5. Sounds like you are feeding an excellent diet and I bet Maudie's coat will look wonderful soon. |
My first OES was Maudie! She was the smartest and sweetest ever.
Welcome! |
Me too, my first was a Maudie! She was my camping, hiking, canoe buddy. |
I love the name Maudie. When I was a kid, there was someone we called "Great Aunt Maudie" who used to come visit and paint oil paintings. I have no idea if she was an actual relative but she was definitely a character. |
Welcome to the forum Maudie's Mom!
Lots of choices on supplements out there-we are giving Bogart~~ Dream Coat (By Halo Pet products). I'm really pleased with the results, we shaved him in March and his coat is thick and about 4 inches right now. Hope you join the forum, would love to see pictures of Maudie! |
I think there are mixed opinions about feeding your dogs Brewer's yeast. I think people did this to prevent fleas but I do think that the yeast can cause some skin ailments.
All of the items below you can buy as human grade in your local drug store. Just dose according to weight. I would recommend using some Omega 3 oil supplement like Cod Liver good for coat & joints. Since OES do tend to have sensitive stomachs you may want to consider a pro-biotic. As your OES ages, Glucosimine/Chondroitan supplement to help with any arthritis issues that may occur. We just starting giving our seven year old. |
I use fish oil caps for the omega-3 for all the dogs, and also glucosamine/chondroitin/MSM for Chewie and Simon. Chewie because he is an active and growing large breed boy, Simon because he is a basset who is 8 yrs old still competing in rally obedience. |
Thanks for the great advice! I will join & add pictures. It might be Aug. until I get to it!! |
We had a litter of O.E.S in the late 60's, when I was a little girl. I remember that mu sister& I named the females Daphne& Maude! |
We FINALLY PUT MAUDIE"S PICTURE ON HERE!! I said it would be Aug. before I got it done! |
She looks like a cute shaggy girl! |
Thanks! We love her to pieces! |
Nice tongue! |
