We had heard that sheep would be difficult to catch and handle, and were thinking that we might let them go in the yard and never catch them again. Luckily, ours are more precocious! They come when we call, and take every opportunity of following us into the laundry room. Mutt is especially brave and sociable (he's the one with more black on his shoulders).
We never realized that sheep would play, but we have witnessed them running and hopping around the yard, especially in the cool of the evening. The hopping is especially entertaining - they just zoom around, bouncing off of all four feet together, like Pepe LePew only faster! Last night they allowed Blake to join in the romp. They were using the storm shelter's roof as a playground already, but Blake introduced the idea of jumping onto the higher section. Mutt was really pleased with that.
