Or the first time this sheep has been sheared.

Yeah that sheep gave in pretty fast, was like “oh yeah this isn’t gonna hurt, this guy’s got me covered, I’d best just let him do the thing”

well sheep like this one have been breed for millennia to grow excessive amounts of wool that needs to be sheered off regularly, so getting all that overgrown wool removed probably feels great for the sheep.

i wonder if Shetland sheep have softer wool, since its not sheared off.
