Little Lamb in Ireland Is Convinced She Is a Dog

A little lamb on a farm in southeastern Ireland is convinced she's a dog.

The baby sheep named Little Dorrit was born this past Christmas and was the runt of a litter, according to Suzanna Crampton, Little Dorrit's owner. Crampton is also the director and founder of Zwartbles Ireland, which primarily sells blankets, rugs and yarn made from the wool of sheep on Crampton's farm.

"Little Dorrit's brothers would bully her away from her mother's milk, so I took her into the kitchen and raised her," Crampton told ABC News today. "At the time, I also had a puppy inside named Bear, and they became best friends. That's where the story really starts."

Because Little Dorrit was "young and impressionable," she took on the ways of Bear and Crampton's other dogs.

The lamb drinks from the same bowls as the pups, eats from their plates and tries to bathe with them, Crampton said.

She even responds to whistles and loves scratches under the chin, Crampton added.

The lamb and her dog "squad" do "everything together," Crampton said. "She dances along and runs with them outside and in the fields."


Little Dorrit is more dog than lamb in her responses

Crampton added that when she's outside in the fields counting sheep, she has to "check if it's hooves or paws" jumping on her.

Though Crampton said she sells some of the sheep on her farm, Little Dorrit will definitely not be up for grabs.


Ooooo the dog in Little Dorrit must join the pack

Ewe have got to be kidding! The 'puppy' born to a SHEEP
By DAILY MAIL REPORTER
UPDATED: 19:29 GMT, 25 March 2011


Vets say it’s impossible - but to Chinese farmer Liu Naiying his birth is a miracle.

For Mr Liu insists one of his sheep has given birth to a dog.

The 'puppy' has wool like a lamb but its mouth, nose, eyes, paws and tail look more like a dog's.

His 'sheep dog' even plays like a hound.

The birth has prompted thousands to flock to his farm in Shaanxi Province to see for themselves.

Mr Liu told how he found the unusual baby animal shortly after it was born in one of his fields.

‘I was herding the sheep, and saw a sheep licking her newborn lamb on the grassland. The lamb was still wet,’ he said.

‘When I went up close to check on the lamb I was shocked because it looked so weird, like a cross between a sheep and a dog.





‘I was a bit frightened, as I've been raising sheep for 20 years and had never seen such a creature.’

Yue Guozhang, a researcher at Xi'an City Animal Husbandry Technology Centre, said sheep and dogs were different species.

‘It's not possible that a sheep could become pregnant with a puppy,’ he said. ‘It's likely that this is just an abnormal lamb.’
