Haven’t got a clue what breed
But this has to be one of the happiest sheep I’ve ever seen .
It even smiles for the camera.
Believe it or not my daughter paid to walk a sheep
I think they are now pen pals

They are one of those breeds that always look as if they're smiling, and they also seem more friendly than the wilder hill breeds. :smile:

Whoever took that photo could not have walked far to take it, judging by the shoes they are waring.

There was a photo in the Times today of a large heard coming down in the Lake District, about 1000 sheep apparently graze up there. The dog in your photo looks bang at it. :thumbs:

It's a FLOCK of sheep. :roll:

Sheep dogs are as fixated with sheep as Neville is on lists! :grin:

The big sheep sales are on around the country at the moment. e.g "Great Annual Two Day Show & Sale of 30,000 Mule Gimmer Lambs..." :dizzy:
