We have a 4 year old OEM named Ozzy and I just love him to pieces. If you do not like a dog following you from room to room, climbing up on your lap every time you sit down or laying with their big heads on your feet, this is not the dog for you. Honestly, I have never met a more loyal, lovable, huggable breed then the OEM. They are a very good source of entertainment. I smile from ear to ear whenever I get the chance to talk about Ozzy. He has roo roo'd (don't worry you will know what i mean if you get one) his way right into our hearts.
Like others have said, they are big dogs that can knock down a child with a bump or leave a bruise with the swing of a tail, so NEVER leave a child unattended with any dog.
