I love how the one in the first photo looks like a collie dog - has it evolved to camouflage itself amongst the herding dogs?!
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing getting revenge?!

I thought it only fair to give you warning, but I am coming to steal your sheep :love: :love: :love:
I NEED those sheep :love: :love:
Are they registered? Are they in lamb??

thanks everyone


Donna...hopefully the ewes in the 1st and last piccy should be in lamb. They went to see a lovely dark Shetland ram in the village.
They are 100% Shetland, but not registered. Your more than welcome anytime, kettle is always on.  :)
In reality by the back end of this year I only want to have a couple as i want to increase the number of Soays...

Dogs I can deal with it's cats cause the  problems(just finishing a course of antibiotics and needed a tetanus booster after being scratched and bitten by a cat)
 
Keep me posted and I'll try to save up some of my miniscule income.
