#014 Hank the Dorset Down Sheep


"Hank is a seriously well-travelled ram with a ewe on every farm. Even as a newborn lamb he possessed a charm that melted all the midwives, and in his life he has continued to win the heart of every woman who crosses his path. He’s a smooth-talking stud of a sheep who carries his twelve-string guitar on his back wherever he goes. Every year his fleece gets hand-spun by his grandmother and knitted up into an intricate Aran jumper that keeps him warm through the unpredictable British summers." (Kerry Lord, Edward's Menagerie, 2014)
