  ET the sheep.
 

Hello my name is ET.

I know I look strange to you but happily the other sheep are not disturbed by my appearance.  I was only 5 months old when I was attacked by this dog.  It was terrifying and so painful.  I was screaming and the dog was growling and biting through my neck.  It had me pinned on the ground.  I couldn't escape.  There was a public footpath in the field and some walkers were on it.  They must have heard all the noise and came to see what was happening.  I  owe them my life.  I can’t remember a great deal of what happened next.  I think I was in shock and had lost a lot of blood.  The dog had ripped my neck open. The walkers took me to a man who, although he hurt me at the time, did all he could to save my life.  He was tremendously kind.  I am 3 years old now and have terrible scars on the back of my neck and no ears but I can hear perfectly well especially when Janet comes down the field with Rich Tea biscuits.  They are my favourites.  I know that the dogs who live here at the Sanctuary won’t hurt me.  My special friend is Jessica.  She is a pure bred Leicester and is white and she has enormous ears – makes up for the lack of mine.  She is 14 years old but I'm not concerned by the age difference .  It seems to be quite a status symbol here at the Sanctuary to be a toy-boy.  I don’t want to be attacked by dogs ever again I don’t think I would survive the shock. It’s safe here.  Please sponsor me.
