We rescue and place dogs ONLY in California, Arizona, and Southern Nevada. If you are not located in our area of the country, please visit The Old English Sheepdog Club of America website to see a list of rescue organizations in your area.
We place 2-4 healthy, but unwanted, Old English Sheepdogs in loving homes every month. Dogs vary in age. We rescue younger, older and special needs dogs.
STEP 1. Terms
At the time you adopt a dog you will be asked to sign and agree to the terms of Old English Sheepdog Rescue of Southern California, Inc., adoption/placement agreement and make a minimum donation.
STEP 2. Please fill out the Application Form and be patient as we currently have a wait-list for dogs.
We have no way of knowing how long your wait for a rescue dog will be as we cannot predict when a rescue dog will enter our program. Since our dogs enter the program via animal shelters or from an owner who is unable to keep their dog, it can take time to find a dog that you are looking for and will fit into your family.

When your name gets close to the top of the waiting list or when we have a volunteer in your area, we will contact you to schedule an in-person interview. In order for you to adopt an OES from our program, you must have a personal interview with one of our rescue committee members. The purpose of this interview is to meet you and get a better feeling for the type of rescue dog you are looking to adopt. This personal interview can be months away. We will contact you.
STEP 3: At Time of Adoption
When your home visit is completed, and you are ready to adopt, you will be require to sign our Terms of Adoption Agreement and make the minimum donation. Your dog will be given appropriate shots, spay or neutered, vet checked, and groomed prior to placement.
