I can't believe how calm she's been through the whole rescue and shearing. For a sheep that wouldn't have had that much human contact before she got stuck, she's been so tolerant and even cooperative of the help. I hope she continues to thrive with friends when she's had time to recover from the traumatic events.
From personal experience sheep are excellent at reading body language, and can actually be quite intelligent. They just have this extreme flocking instinct that seems to override whatever common sense they might have.
I am presumingshe had some good farm life before she got stuck, so now she is home in a farm environment again, that is coming back to her. Humans feeding her, other sheep around, getting that heavy coat sheared off, she is finally feeling good again.
i'm getting the impression she might've already been a year or two old at the time she got stuck down the cliff, she's really not skittish of humans so she's been around them enough already (prey animals, domesticated or not, do need a good bit of early and continued handling for that)
Fiona’s temperament is exactly what needs to be passed on to future generations. Such a calm, trusting sheep. She knew instinctively that the men were there to help her. Cammie, great job on your 1st old school shearing! Fiona looks really good.
What do you mean? Most people are like sheep’s nowadays without own will or goals. Helpless bastards who follow everything politicians tell them to follow.
@@paulacoyle5685 They said in the video that she hadn't been. They know her original owner, I imagine that farmer was able to tell them whether she'd been sheared or not.
Concordo plenamente!! As pessoas andam doentes e más! A maioria é inveja de não terem nada para fazer 😡e só procuraram chatear os outros! Não ligue!! No meu país á ditado antigo que diz! Os cães ladram e a caravana passa 😅 parabéns 🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘🇦🇫
Those protestors saying people shouldn't visit Fiona are unaware of how people friendly sheep can be! Fiona is sweet, curious, and starved of affection. She needs visitors! The farm will manage it so she isn't overwhelmed and gets to just be a sheep with her new herd. ❤
Number one, they don’t actually know animals. Most farm animals are social, and don’t care whether they’re hanging out with a pig, a sheep, a cow, or even a human being. But maybe more importantly, if they’re trying to protect animals, and perhaps get them more humanely treated, and not eaten quite as often, then they should want the general public to have close contact with animals and keep the pressure on farms to treat them humanely. Anyway, nice job shearers!
it's not the ewes you've gotta worry about it's the rams had a particularly unruly one called Reuben that liked to climb into windows about a half story up from ground level and sitting on couches mafia style and ramming things.
They don’t care about Fiona. If they did, they would be concerned about the amount of hair that was growing in the issues that it was causing her because of the matting. They just wanted that opportunity to get attention.
With sheep being such herd animals, she must’ve been lonely for those years when she was stranded. I’m amazed by how calm and trusting she was during both the rescue and subsequent shearing. So happy to see her safe and with her new friends! God bless you and your team for caring so much for Fiona 🥰.
@@ckkrons2338I'm definitely an introvert, many humans are. Sheep, however, are deeply social, and they need the security they feel in a herd, the same way people like you and I feel secure NOT being in a crowd of people.
She's like "Thank goodness that's over!" as she's settled in a cosy barn with friends. As herd animals that must've been so stressful for her having no companions. Well done that was the neatest trim I've ever seen on a very difficult weight. The care with the trim was second to none. Fantastic ♥
The thing is, sheep are domesticated from several thousand years by us, and responsive to humans by selection so we can handle them. Also we bred out the shedding of the wool to have easy access to the fibre. They really need us and I am so glad the fellas got her out of solitary.
actually not really, for example pigeons which been domesticated for a long time and abandon for decades are still great pets (as compared to parrots for example)
This is a positive report in a world of negativity. She looks very healthy and relaxed and well cared for. A good rescue and all set for a safe and warm winter.
Yes! ❤ I had a friend who had some rescued sheep, and I loved visiting when she did spring shearing, they were practically dancing with joy when it was warm enough for them to get their winter wool sheared. 😊 And I spin yarn, so I'd always buy some to bring home.
What a fantastic story - from her rescue, to her shearing, and to her forever home at Dalscone. All of you who were involved in each stage deserve our highest praise and thanks for a job well done with care and kindness for one of God’s lowliest creatures. Thank you, and blessings to each of you! 🙏🏼💕

Thank you to all the farmers and rescuers who got Fiona out of the area. Can't imagine how much better she felt after getting rid of 17 lbs of wool, she looked very healthy!
I am a city girl who has never been anywhere near a sheep in my life. But all of you kind people have made me fall quite in love with Fiona! Cammy, maybe you and Fiona should sit down, put your heads together, and write a children’s book about Fiona’s story and how she was rescued and cared for by a group of kindly shepherds and farmers. And I’m pretty sure that there would be a serious market for some small dolls resembling Fiona (in her lovely shorn condition, of course. Thanks to all of you fine folks who put yourselves out to work together to save this fine lassie and give her a beautiful home. Happy Holidays to you and all of yours from myself in Spokane, Washington in the Pacific Inland Northwest region of the U.S.! And please give Fiona a little hug from Sandra!
I haven’t paid very close attention, but from what I gathered the farm has a “petting zoo” style area. One of the protesters concerns was that Fiona would be used as a celebrity prop to drum up business and “overhandled” by guests. That and some of them seem to be anti-farm in general. Edit: as some of you seem to have the reading comprehension skills of gnats, NO, I am not on the side of the protestors, NOR do I think Fiona will have anything except absolute sheepy happiness for the rest of her days. I was simply answering OP’s question. Good day!
But they r closes 4 the winter and have said she's got a few months until they open to settle in. And if she dose not take she will be moved to a quite area away from the petting zoo
I ve watched all the stuff on Fiona…..at all times she s been treated with care and dignity…can’t believe the trolls and their comments ..but then they ll do anything for publicity… you did a grand job TeamCammy😊

Imagine how that heavy wool pulled on her skin. Poor lassie, Fiona. Thank you for carefully hand shearing her to leave a protective winter coat. Thank you to all the rescue team! So happy to see her with other sheep, alone no more. 🥰🐑 💕❤️👍👍
I am sooo glad that you got to shear her and that we can enjoy this video, Cammy! I almost teared up by it. What a glorious job you did and how sweet was Fiona, completely trusting towards you and the process. She stood up and then, after two stumbles, she suddenly raised her head up, like she was feeling the wow of this sudden freedom. Almost 10 kilo's of wool off her back. Magnificent! This is actually worldnews worth watching.
So happy to see Fiona at her new home and with her wool trimmed. I really appreciate that you all took into consideration that she would need a layer of wool heading into the winter. She is lovely. I hope that her fleece can be salvaged, but it will be a huge job to get it cleaned and prepared for roving or spun into yarn. A huge thank you to everyone involved in getting her rescued and settled in at her new home. 🐑🐑🐑
Something that really gets me about Fiona is her temperament, alone for years and dodging humans yet she's so calm and friendly! I wish her nothing but the best life from now on, no more overgrown wool and some friends to hang out with plus a lot of food in her belly!
She IS Absotively Majestic, Cam! You guys did a FANTABULOUS job rescuing her wooly little fanny and as a sheep owner/lover/immense, fan I am grateful!!! ❤🐑🇺🇸❤🐑🇺🇸❤
@@DanBeech-ht7sw strange, having raised several breeds of sheep for most of my life including Scots that's what even the vets called them. Whatever you do in Scotland such as abandoning sheep down cliffs is obviously sus. ❤🐑❤🇺🇸❤🐑❤
@@WkdWnch007 Free range sheep, free to make bad decisions on its own. Not my sheep. However, in Scotland (where this sheep is from) a fanny is a vagina.
It's as though some people think they'll live and die unnoticed by the world unless they can get attention by finding something stupid to fuss about. You did a good thing here. Thank you for helping her. 😊
You know, she was so good during the shearing that I have to think she *knew* in her sheep's brain, that something good was happening! The shearer was amazing with her; his calm demeanor no doubt was calming for her! Great job, to all!
Bless your heart Cammy. The people that are protesting must be ignorant of the help and relief Fiona is getting. I believe she is holding so still because she knows you are helping her. Fiona is so pretty.
Thank you all for everything that you did for Fiona. She appeared to know what you were doing with the shearing and was happy to enjoy the pampering session
I've been a barber for 26 years and I can tell ya when people say I make what I do like super easy. You did that for me on this video,. That was super awesome mate! The precision and skill you can see this man is gentle and knows his stuff since a long time now. Thanks for this video. loved it !!
Awww, she looks beautiful now❣️ She even paused for a few seconds once she walked, as if to think “Oooo, I feel so light now!” Did she just wink at the camera at the very end of the video?😮😁 She was so perfectly behaved throughout her whole shorn. I think it helped hearing your calming voice and she might’ve sensed that you were helping her. God bless all of you who rescued her!😇🙏🏼🐑
I learned about Fiona from Graeme the Hoof GP and I'm really glad to see her get tidied up with a nice shearing -- she looks fluffy and lovely. Watching from Utah, USA.
So what if it's not the best-looking shearing job. Every action & decision ever taken has always been about doing the very best for Fiona. Plus, going to Dalscone Farm to live with sheep friends has benefitted Fiona so much. She's such a lovely lass with an amazing temperament, especially for a sheep who has never been used to human contact. Thanks again to everyone for rescuing Fiona & showing love & kindness towards her. Also, thank you for the updates on FB.❤😍
That smile at the end and her calm demeanor throughout says it all 😊. Fiona was so happy to be rescued then relieved of nearly 10 lbs of matted, stinking, dirty wool. This guy did an amazing job in the matter of minutes while making sure Fiona was as comfortable as possible the entire time. Thank you, sir, for caring and putting her health and safety first. Anyone with the ability to comprehend things can see she is in the right place to live her best life here on out. People really should do their own thorough research before protesting things they don’t truly understand; and, don’t forget to fact check your sources.
she does seem quite content. she was very calm while being sheared. so glad she now has friends and feels free enough not to look for a place to hide. you guys have taken great care of her and she really is adorable. 🐑🐑🐑🌷🌱🌷🌱
So wonderful to see kind and gentle men, taking such good care of this adorable 'lass'....such a heartwarming story! She has such a lovely temperament, and the most beautiful face...a real life Sheep Superstar!!!!!
What a beautiful lassie she is! Amazing to see all that wool come off her Cammy! The rescue have done such a fantastic piece of work. Thank you all❤️🇦🇺🏴
It's so sweet to see her treated gently and I am sure she LOVES having friends much more than having freedom. I can't believe how stocky she is! Well done.
What a beautiful lady Fiona has turned into after your shearing. She was so calm. Thanks again to you and all the others for rescuing this loneliest sheep. She seems happy in her new home with her friends.
What a magnificent lass .Head up, able to carry that ridiculous weight of wool about despite what must be real discomfort and who knows, probably pain too . Terribly hot in summer and so forth . Well done you people taking care of that burden for her❤
You're a grand man Cammy, you and all the team have done a wonderful thing. I used to farm up in Cromarty nearly 50 years ago and I know what it's like getting sheep back up those cliffs 🐑🐑🐑
Wow so good to come back 8 months later to see 3.8 million views. We all love a good shearing sheep vid don't we. Go Fiona. Lets not forget how many people and organizations were happy to leave her down the cliff.
Although her ‘hair’ cut wasn’t the prettiest it was the best way to do it, much better than the electric shears buzzing away and you were able to leave her with a coat for the cold weather. Great work by all those involved in her rescue and care ❤
❤ Such a tough job but the shearer was so kind, patient and careful. I love when he called Fiona, lass, so sweet. Thank you for taking such good care of her. USA NH
This vid popped up on my feed after watching a shearing vid of an alpaca/llama. That dude was spitting and fighting the whole time, but she had to get it done as he was so bad (several years), and the Texas summer was approaching. Thanks to all of you who help animals in need. Fiona is a beauty!
Cammy, you did such an amazing job shearing Fiona. Making sure she was comforted the whole time. She completely trusted you. I have loved watching her journey to Dalscone Farm (my favorite farm) where I think she is more in love with Farmers, Pete, Ben and Conor than her mates Amy, Dozey and Curly Sue next door. You can actually see the love in her eyes when they come near her pen. Thank you to Graeme from the Hoof GP, whom I have been watching for a long time, as I saw the rescue through him. So much love from this Maine, USA girl. Did the man that wanted to do something with her wool get the ok?
Cam, you did an absolutely remarkable shearing job! Thank you for helping that poor sheep up the cliff and for shearing her. It was very interesting to see you use the hand shears.
This has been the most incredible story. It was amazing that she was even found! I watched the day that you guys made it down to the bottom of that cliff,and brought her back out of there. I was holding my breath praying that non of you would get hurt. It seemed like she knew that she was finally getting out! It was pretty incredible that she wasn’t kicking like crazy! Thanks so very much for sharing this update 👍🫶🏻‼️
Fantastic hand shear job & great to leave her in her undies - not naked! Cammie you are so gentle & caring & I love the way you talk to the sheep & explain what you’re doing. The rescue clip was great - my favourite bit was her nibbling at the grass through the hole in the bag on the way up! Beautiful temperament. Greetings from S Australia
I am so glad you where the one that got to shear Fiona. I could see that she really trusted you. & how happy Fiona was after you where done. I loved all you & your friends did for Her. I seen there Your friend Sandi Brock was talking about what you all did for her. & Sandi has said she would love to have her to. My vote was ether you or Sandi take her. But I know Fiona is in a great home. Please keep us up to date with Fiona. Thank you Cammy.
That was absolutely amazing. I can't get over how calm Fiona is after being stranded for 2-3 years. And the way you easily roll her onto her butt with no fuss. I bet she must feel so much better without the extra weight of all that dense wool. Well done to everyone in the rescue and recovery of Fiona. Now The Happiest Sheep in the World. Good on ya.... 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🇨🇦😎
She’s gorgeous + l love the decision to shear her manually, much less stressful. And then the perfect outcome at her forever home which she truly deserves. Lovely Fiona!🐑💕
Thanks for posting the shearing video. She looks like a million dollars. The resume team and the new home couldn't have been done better. Sorry protestors you don't look up to the job.
Protesters.... Ahh.....what do they know?!? They're always griping about something. Maybe they should have to do this kind of work for a little while. That might shut 'em up!!!
This was fascinating to watch. You did a great job shearing her and you were so kind. I am very impressed. How nice that you trimmed her a bit to make her look good. You guys are heroes. Thanks.
Clearing out sheds on a derelict small holding we bought, we found antuque hand shears, and also an iron push-along potato / seeding "pram", and an old Welsh oven (iron pot and lid). Seeing these old skills in use is great, and good to see Fiona getting in the groove too.
I can't believe how calm she's been through the whole rescue and shearing. For a sheep that wouldn't have had that much human contact before she got stuck, she's been so tolerant and even cooperative of the help. I hope she continues to thrive with friends when she's had time to recover from the traumatic events.
From personal experience sheep are excellent at reading body language, and can actually be quite intelligent. They just have this extreme flocking instinct that seems to override whatever common sense they might have.

Its probably because she's never had much human contact that she's so relaxed and trusting.
I bet she wondered if this day would ever come.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in getting her rescued and settled in at her new home. 🐑🐑🐑
What a amazing story and I'm glad she's happy with companions in her new forever home
Die Geschichte hat mich tief berührt! Ich freue mich für das Schaf! Ich kann nicht verstehen, wie man Tier so verwahrlosen lassen kann !
Something that really gets me about Fiona is her temperament, alone for years and dodging humans yet she's so calm and friendly! I wish her nothing but the best life from now on, no more overgrown wool and some friends to hang out with plus a lot of food in her belly!
I'm so glad those farmers rescued Fiona.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have never seen anyone be so gentle when shearing a sheep. God bless you.
She IS Absotively Majestic, Cam! You guys did a FANTABULOUS job rescuing her wooly little fanny and as a sheep owner/lover/immense, fan I am grateful!!! ❤🐑🇺🇸❤🐑🇺🇸❤
Her woolly little WHAT???!!
@@DanBeech-ht7sw fanny..bottom, rear, ass, tail end, dupa, dumper...FANNY!!!
@@WkdWnch007 it's a Scottish sheep, and that's not where a sheep's fanny is in Scotland.
@@DanBeech-ht7sw strange, having raised several breeds of sheep for most of my life including Scots that's what even the vets called them. Whatever you do in Scotland such as abandoning sheep down cliffs is obviously sus. ❤🐑❤🇺🇸❤🐑❤
@@WkdWnch007 Free range sheep, free to make bad decisions on its own. Not my sheep. However, in Scotland (where this sheep is from) a fanny is a vagina.
She is so chill for not being around humans for years. So glad to see she is thriving.
It's as though some people think they'll live and die unnoticed by the world unless they can get attention by finding something stupid to fuss about. You did a good thing here. Thank you for helping her. 😊
What an absolute sweetheart. She is so calm and trusting. Thank you all for rescuing and caring for her.
How lucky is Fiona to have everyone looking out for her welfare, she seems to appreciate all the care she has had!❤️
You know, she was so good during the shearing that I have to think she *knew* in her sheep's brain, that something good was happening! The shearer was amazing with her; his calm demeanor no doubt was calming for her! Great job, to all!
Bless your heart Cammy. The people that are protesting must be ignorant of the help and relief Fiona is getting. I believe she is holding so still because she knows you are helping her. Fiona is so pretty.
Who would want a herd animal isolated and weighed down by filthy matted fur? Yes,they are ignorant.
She’s such a good girl oh my goodness. Her temperament is just like a calm puppy. I love her 😄
That poor soul. Bless her for keeping going in spite of the extra weight she carried. Thanks for setting her free!
She has a lovely character for 1 that's been isolated for such an extended time, a real sweetie who seems thankful for the kindnesses she's received.
Great job Cammy ,Fiona is so chilled out ,she trusts you because she knows you're trying to help her . She is such a majestic girl ❤️
I’m glad that Fiona has been rescued and is back with other sheep. It’s reassuring to see every being, including one sheep, being cared for.
She was smiling at the end of the video. She's happy and I'm happy for her. Great job with rescuing her. ❤👏🏾🐑
Thank you all for everything that you did for Fiona. She appeared to know what you were doing with the shearing and was happy to enjoy the pampering session
Fiona is precious. Bless the rescuers and the kind shearer.
I've been a barber for 26 years and I can tell ya when people say I make what I do like super easy. You did that for me on this video,. That was super awesome mate! The precision and skill you can see this man is gentle and knows his stuff since a long time now. Thanks for this video. loved it !!
She was soft eyed from the moment you had her. What an incredible story and a talented team. ❤
She’s a lovely girl, our Fiona. Thank you all so very much for helping her and rescuing her.
I guarantee you this darlin is so thankful..thank you for helping her
Awww, she looks beautiful now❣️ She even paused for a few seconds once she walked, as if to think “Oooo, I feel so light now!” Did she just wink at the camera at the very end of the video?😮😁 She was so perfectly behaved throughout her whole shorn. I think it helped hearing your calming voice and she might’ve sensed that you were helping her. God bless all of you who rescued her!😇🙏🏼🐑
I learned about Fiona from Graeme the Hoof GP and I'm really glad to see her get tidied up with a nice shearing -- she looks fluffy and lovely. Watching from Utah, USA.
likewise, but from Australia
Not sure if you saw, but Graeme was there for the shearing! That’s him in the Hoof GP hat. Looks like his boys came along for the ride.
When Outsiders put their minds to do something they can do Anything.
Thank you all for giving her the life she deserves.
God bless you all💜
So what if it's not the best-looking shearing job. Every action & decision ever taken has always been about doing the very best for Fiona. Plus, going to Dalscone Farm to live with sheep friends has benefitted Fiona so much. She's such a lovely lass with an amazing temperament, especially for a sheep who has never been used to human contact.
Thanks again to everyone for rescuing Fiona & showing love & kindness towards her. Also, thank you for the updates on FB.❤😍
That smile at the end and her calm demeanor throughout says it all 😊. Fiona was so happy to be rescued then relieved of nearly 10 lbs of matted, stinking, dirty wool. This guy did an amazing job in the matter of minutes while making sure Fiona was as comfortable as possible the entire time. Thank you, sir, for caring and putting her health and safety first. Anyone with the ability to comprehend things can see she is in the right place to live her best life here on out. People really should do their own thorough research before protesting things they don’t truly understand; and, don’t forget to fact check your sources.
Over 20lbs!
@@andrewallason4530 more like 200 lbs.
You did amazing job on this sheep. I’m sure she feels 1000 times better. Thanks for caring for the support animal in need. ♥️😂
She’s quite the adorable sheep! Congrats on her safe rescue and I’m glad you got that huge blanket off of her, what a relief it must have been for her
she does seem quite content. she was very calm while being sheared. so glad she now has friends and feels free enough not to look for a place to hide. you guys have taken great care of her and she really is adorable. 🐑🐑🐑🌷🌱🌷🌱
Wow Fiona baby you are lucky for such kind hearted men rescued. Your life is precious girl. You are safe and happy rest of your years
What an awesome video. Thank you Cammy and all concerned in the rescue and ongoing and forever care of Fiona
how awesome it must feel for her to do something as simple as scratching that itch!❤️
Fiona is a miracle sheep! You did a beautiful job shearing her. I think she’s a pretty girl. Good luck Fiona. Be well and be happy!! 🐑
Despite narrating for us, he keeps reassuring her.❤
I love the way Cammy always talks to his sheep!
So wonderful to see kind and gentle men, taking such good care of this adorable 'lass'....such a heartwarming story!
She has such a lovely temperament, and the most beautiful face...a real life Sheep Superstar!!!!!
You are all good, kind men. You all handled her with gentle respect. Im thankful she went to your farm. Blessings on your heads..😊
What a beautiful lassie she is! Amazing to see all that wool come off her Cammy! The rescue have done such a fantastic piece of work. Thank you all❤️🇦🇺🏴
It's so sweet to see her treated gently and I am sure she LOVES having friends much more than having freedom. I can't believe how stocky she is! Well done.
Thank you for taking time and for leaving a short amount of wool left on her. I’m sure she feels liberated!
What a beautiful lady Fiona has turned into after your shearing. She was so calm. Thanks again to you and all the others for rescuing this loneliest sheep. She seems happy in her new home with her friends.
Great job camy. I've never seen a more gentle shearer
Great job Cammy and everyone involved in her rescue. She seemed to know she needed the help of a shepherd(s). ❤️
Thank you so much for saving her and giving her a beautiful life.
What a magnificent lass .Head up, able to carry that ridiculous weight of wool about despite what must be real discomfort and who knows, probably pain too . Terribly hot in summer and so forth . Well done you people taking care of that burden for her❤
You're a grand man Cammy, you and all the team have done a wonderful thing. I used to farm up in Cromarty nearly 50 years ago and I know what it's like getting sheep back up those cliffs 🐑🐑🐑
Wow! amazing story. Thank you for sharing and showing so much kindness to her.
I don’t know anything about sheep but it’s amazing how calm she is. What a wonderful rescue! Love this❤️❤️
Blessings to you for making a difference in the world. Fiona, you are PRECIOUS ❤❤❤
Wow so good to come back 8 months later to see 3.8 million views. We all love a good shearing sheep vid don't we. Go Fiona. Lets not forget how many people and organizations were happy to leave her down the cliff.
Although her ‘hair’ cut wasn’t the prettiest it was the best way to do it, much better than the electric shears buzzing away and you were able to leave her with a coat for the cold weather. Great work by all those involved in her rescue and care ❤
Fiona has such a calm attitude and temprement to her. What a beautiful ewe. Well done Cammy, Graeme and crew....
❤ Such a tough job but the shearer was so kind, patient and careful. I love when he called Fiona, lass, so sweet. Thank you for taking such good care of her. USA NH
This gentleman is kind and as gentle as he can. Fiona must feel so amazing. ❤
Thank the Lord for you people. You saved her, she's such an intelligent girl. Bless you from Canada.

This vid popped up on my feed after watching a shearing vid of an alpaca/llama. That dude was spitting and fighting the whole time, but she had to get it done as he was so bad (several years), and the Texas summer was approaching. Thanks to all of you who help animals in need. Fiona is a beauty!
Cammy, you did such an amazing job shearing Fiona. Making sure she was comforted the whole time. She completely trusted you. I have loved watching her journey to Dalscone Farm (my favorite farm) where I think she is more in love with Farmers, Pete, Ben and Conor than her mates Amy, Dozey and Curly Sue next door. You can actually see the love in her eyes when they come near her pen. Thank you to Graeme from the Hoof GP, whom I have been watching for a long time, as I saw the rescue through him. So much love from this Maine, USA girl. Did the man that wanted to do something with her wool get the ok?
Cam, you did an absolutely remarkable shearing job! Thank you for helping that poor sheep up the cliff and for shearing her.
It was very interesting to see you use the hand shears.
Yes, it was very interesting! Never have seen anyone shear by hand. GOOD JOB! 👍🏿 🇺🇸✨️✨️
Fiona is a lovely girl, I’m so happy she was rescued and now has friends. She is a miracle. ❤😊
This has been the most incredible story. It was amazing that she was even found! I watched the day that you guys made it down to the bottom of that cliff,and brought her back out of there. I was holding my breath praying that non of you would get hurt. It seemed like she knew that she was finally getting out! It was pretty incredible that she wasn’t kicking like crazy! Thanks so very much for sharing this update 👍🫶🏻‼️
Fantastic hand shear job & great to leave her in her undies - not naked! Cammie you are so gentle & caring & I love the way you talk to the sheep & explain what you’re doing.
The rescue clip was great - my favourite bit was her nibbling at the grass through the hole in the bag on the way up! Beautiful temperament. Greetings from S Australia
Wool underwear 😂
@@paulk8532 Underwool!
I know that she is so relieved and happy. Thank God for people like u'll , that care n see about animals . She even looks happy
I am so glad you where the one that got to shear Fiona. I could see that she really trusted you. & how happy Fiona was after you where done. I loved all you & your friends did for Her. I seen there Your friend Sandi Brock was talking about what you all did for her. & Sandi has said she would love to have her to. My vote was ether you or Sandi take her. But I know Fiona is in a great home. Please keep us up to date with Fiona. Thank you Cammy.
That was absolutely amazing. I can't get over how calm Fiona is after being stranded for 2-3 years.
And the way you easily roll her onto her butt with no fuss.
I bet she must feel so much better without the extra weight of all that dense wool.
Well done to everyone in the rescue and recovery of Fiona.
Now The Happiest Sheep in the World.
Good on ya....
🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🇨🇦😎
Such a beautiful story, she is now safe and in good hands.
She’s gorgeous + l love the decision to shear her manually, much less stressful. And then the perfect outcome at her forever home which she truly deserves. Lovely Fiona!🐑💕
Thanks for posting the shearing video. She looks like a million dollars. The resume team and the new home couldn't have been done better. Sorry protestors you don't look up to the job.
Protesters....
Ahh.....what do they know?!?
They're always griping about something.
Maybe they should have to do this kind of work for a little while.
That might shut 'em up!!!
What fine, kind men you are! Your families should be proud of you!
I can't believe how well she is! She is in top form and very calm. Great job, it looked really difficult !
This was fascinating to watch. You did a great job shearing her and you were so kind. I am very impressed. How nice that you trimmed her a bit to make her look good. You guys are heroes. Thanks.
Just feeling so much love ❤️❤️❤️ and all the love and kindness you show Fiona.. I'm all teared up 🥹🥹🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you!
Clearing out sheds on a derelict small holding we bought, we found antuque hand shears, and also an iron push-along potato / seeding "pram", and an old Welsh oven (iron pot and lid). Seeing these old skills in use is great, and good to see Fiona getting in the groove too.
