"Imprinting"
It amazes me how much the sheep seem to enjoy the company of these pups. One night as I was going out to feed the lambs, I spotted one ewe lamb off by herself. There were at least 5 pups pouncing all over her! At first, it appeared as if they had her down, but as I approached to intervene, she lifted her head and much to my surprise she was contently chewing her cud! I could hardly believe my eyes!
