[Jacob-list] lambie-pie

[Linda]

Thanks for the update. I'm glad to hear that Shirly is on the road to recovery. One thing that we have in our favor as Jacob breeders is the fact that Jacobs do not fit into the trite adages often used to describe sheep. "A sheep is just an animal looking for a place to die". "A down sheep is a dead sheep".  That outlook is one of the reasons, at least around here, that many vets will just not bother with sheep.  We are fortunate that our sheep have a primitive survival outlook and do their best to make it.
