hug a sheep

Didn’t hug the quads, as it was a rainy day and they were antsy with their mum… Instead I found a big ol’ boy sheep hanging out by the fence that had been shorn the day before, and gave him a two-arm hug around his neck.

I think it made him nervous.

So uh, sheep: not like dogs.

Aren’t as touchy-feely as I thought “Clouds With Legs” would be… I suppose it’s logical that farm animals recently shorn might not be so down for a snuggle…

Still, worth doing, glad I did it. I look forward to hugging lambs in the near future. :D

The uni nearby has a sheep breeding centre wherein a momma sheep has birthed 4 black and white speckly quadruplet lambies! So help me: I shall hug one of those sheepies this spring!!
