Meet Marley, the sheep who is having lessons on how to be a lamb because he thinks he's a dog and doesn't like grass or the cold.
The woolly pet was orphaned and taken in by a family and became best friends with their labrador Jess.
Six-month-old Marley, a Valais Blacknose Valley breed, is now so big he has to move outside - but needs lessons on how to be a proper sheep.

Sheep dog. Duh.
When he starts barking you’ll know that the transition is complete.
I never would have known that Marley was a sheep.......
The whole FR thread overnight is pigs, sheep, lambs, dogs...
Face it, Marley is trans-species. If he chooses to identify as a dog, who are we to argue?
We’ve raised bottle baby goats and lambs because they were rejected by their birth mothers. They are placed in a pen and fed regularly and become quite bonded with us. You have to start feeding them hay in a month so their stomachs can start to function properly. They will eat dog food if you don’t keep it away from them but the dog is usually good about policing his own dish.
bttt
Has Marley been one of the millions to go and see Black Panther too?
I want the Aga behind him!
Wait, they got another male sheep? If they procured a ewe for him and kept her outside, Marley would follow, perhaps as a dog, but at least hell be outside.
You cant do that if he thinks he is a dog you have no right to interfere. You must foster and support his delusion.

Cutest sheep I ever saw
I saw that before I saw the sheep. lol
Had an Aunt that was nearly killed by a former 4H project of my cousins (her children).
She spent some time in the hospital, the critter trampled her, badly. She said, once it knocked her down, it was trampling her and very difficult to get up.
Born, raised, and died many years later on the land my cousins still farm.
They later felt it was a mistake in the way they returned it to the flock after grooming it for show.
She was a very tough woman.
If times get really tough she could eat one of her pets. Errrr, let me think. Which one would that be?
Sure, raise him in the house and then kick him out into the cold harsh world.
They can’t be housebroken. Knew some hippies once that kept baby goats indoors. They never even flinched when it peed all over their furniture and pooped on the floor.
