Old English sheepdog (species)
A sheepdog (illustration) originating from England. A medium-sized breed, standing at least 55 cm tall and weighing 25-27 kg. This dog is characterized by a thick, dense undercoat and a stiff but extremely long topcoat, with only the tip of the nose and the tongue visible when the mouth is open. The coat color is white on the head, neck, chest, and extremities, while the body is gray or a bluish gray called grizzle. The tail is customarily cut short, leading to the nickname "bobtail." This dog is not as old as the name of the breed would suggest, and is a relatively new breed, having been bred in the early 1800s.
