Sharkey Tries to Befriend the Sheep
You probably know from reading this blog that the Frenchies, especially Sharkey, like to bark at the donkeys, Clive, Rufus, and Billie. Where the donkeys just laugh and let the idle threat roll away, other members of the farm menagerie take matters more seriously. For example, the two Black Welsh Mountain sheep don’t know what to make of Sharkey’s behavior. I tried to explain things to the sheep, but I don’t think it did much good.
1 I need to establish a little trust with the two Black Welsh Mountain sheep, so this is my plan – I’m going to stay put right here and remain calm, collected, and quiet.
2 The sheep will see that I’m no threat and maybe, just maybe, they’ll warm up to me.
3 However, it’s getting…harder…for me…to…control…myself – DARN!!!
4 ARF!!! ARF!!! ARF!!! Look sheep! I just can’t help it!!! I can’t control myself! ARF!!! ARF!!! ARF!!!
5 Baaaa!!! Let’s get away from that noisy and threatening Frenchie!
6 Baaa!!! Don’t look back! Just keep running!
7 Baaa!! Baaa!! Oh, hi G.K. Can you please tell us what the deal is with Sharkey?
8 Instead of being friendly and nice, she just goes crazy and barks at us! It’s downright dreadful!
9 Well, Baa Baa Black Sheep – It’s like this. Sharkey wants to be friends, but she has difficulty controlling some…err… instinctual urges.
10 In fact, I, too, have similar instinctual urges. However, I am disciplined in controlling them. For example, and take no offense, when I look at you, I’m reminded of a juicy, succulent lamb chop, but I certainly don’t let that show.
11 Egads!!! Baaa!! Baaa!! Where do we hide? Let’s hope that fence holds!
