Because of his friendship with a Labrador, this sheep named Marley has to be taught anew to be a sheep. Since he is 100% sure that he is a dog
Meet Marley! This cute orphan sheep was adopted by kind people from the county of Cumbria in the UK and moved to live with a family where his best friend was a Labrador Jess. And all because Marley caught an infection at an early age of sheep, which caused his joints to become inflamed, and his owner, Eli Vaughan, had to arrange for him to stay on the dog litter. Now the black-nosed ram has grown into a huge beast, and thanks to his strong friendship with Jess, he considers himself a dog. With all the accompanying circumstances. Marley’s owners have to retrain him to be a sheep, because he does not like grass, preferring it to dog food, and is not too interested in walking. Marley belongs to a breed of Swiss sheep that usually graze somewhere in the Alps, and do not lie at home on a dog litter. But what does this have to do with Marley! He was ready to bark.
When Marley came into the family, he was a lamb with an infection, so his owner, Eli Vaughan, gave him a place on the dog bed next to his current best friend, Labrador Jesse.
It was from him that Marley adopted his dog habits and declared himself a dog after recovery.
The couple (Ali and Max) who took Marley from a local farmer have always loved animals and were happy to have them. When they moved into a house with a large plot of land, it seemed like a great idea to have their own sheep to rake grass in their overgrown garden.
Who would have thought that Marley would prefer juicy grass to dog food!
Now the sheep has to learn to be a sheep again, because Marley’s close communication with Jess (who took care of the lamb during his illness) convinced him that he is a real dog.
In addition, it is very difficult to kick Marley out into the street, since he likes to lie on the bed next to the fireplace more. He really doesn’t like cold, wind or rain.
To speed up the transformation of Marley from a dog into a sheep, his owners brought another sheep, a Bear. Now the six-month-old Marley will have a companion who, according to Ali and Max’s calculations, will show him the positive aspects of sheep life!
