i had a dalmatin sheepdog mix when i was younger. man i loved that dog my best friend. I was 16 when she died and it was strange to see me (tattoos, piercings and mowhak at the time) crying.
She was deaf from birth which i think was from the dalmation side. Deafness is a common problem with dalmations.
She had something called hip dysplasia also. She also got a bladder infection but a course of antibiotics took care of it,
good luck and please be good to your animal.

Hi Pringles!!
Hereditary problems for Old English Sheepdogs - hip dysplasia, eye defects, auto-immune disease, deafness,monorchidism, cryptorchidism, cerebellar ataxia, eye or hearing defects, thyroid disease, and dental irregularities.
Dogs (males) should not be used for breeding until they have been x-rayed for hip dysplasia after achieving at least 18 months of age.
Please consultant about your vet!!

You'll have to be a bit more specific!
Have you tried a breed specific forum like the one below?
