A youth project involving sheep can be a wonderful experience for a young person as well as their family. When I introduce a new animal to the herd I usually pen them off for a few days at least so they can get to know each other over a gate/fence first. All dogs are the same species, whatever their breed, as are all cats, horses and cattle.
However, the same cannot be said about donkeys. And if you've ever seriously asked it, you know it can be an agonizing one.
