Sheep Rescue

One of our yearling sheep managed to crawl underneath the wire fencing yesterday afternoon. After the neighbors called us with the news, the kids and I headed outside for a search and rescue operation.
The sheep in question was, fortunately, pacing back and forth frantically trying to get back in with his herd mates. We couldn't find a whole in the fencing though, so the only solution was for Remy to climb the 6 foot fence, and catch the renegade. Not an easy task, since the lamb in question has not been handled and is quite skittish, the minute he saw Remy he ran the other way.... Remy had to flatten himself against the neighbors house and wait.... the sheep came barreling in, Remy grabbed and straddled, they both bounced along for a few paces, and finally came to a stop. But there was no way of bringing the sheep back in, I started pulling on his back legs from underneath the fence, hoping somehow to topple him and drag him in... Remy, however,  was quick to correct me... he instructed me to lift the bottom of the wire fencing as high as it would go, while he shoved the small beast back into our side.... when it was finally over, Remy was bruised and scratched all over, from being in between the fence and the neighbor's house which is not "very soft".
