Sheep therapy

I think sheep are very relaxing.  I love the sound of them munching the grass, their baahing, the way they look at me with their smiley faces, and the sheepy smell. Whenever I am in a field of sheep, my anxiety levels slowly start to go down until I get to the point when I begin to feel at peace. I know that horses are often used in therapy, but could research be done on 'sheep therapy'?

  • I like Golden Retrievers and friendly breeds that I have been introduced to, but I have a severe phobia of 'aggressive' dog breeds and guard dogs and snappy dogs. I used to have a dog of my own, Jessy, who I grew up with. She was a welsh spaniel cross welsh collie, and was red and white with a long bushy tail. She was a medium sized dog, and was very friendly. I loved her so much. I would spend hours cuddling her, kissing her, holding her paw, tickling her tummy, stroking her floppy ears. She died when she was 16 and I was 15 - she had to be put down because she had kidney failure.
