Full Shear Of An American Black Faced Sheep

Sheep can naturally turn their head to scratch their shoulders and back. This take down technique uses that reach to fold the sheep's body, throwing their balance off and sliding their feet from beneath them. This is a safe way to restrain the animal and maneuver it without injury to sheep or shearer. If the sheep were in pain, it would fight like hell to get away.

God bless you ladies. The Texas heat is unbearable.

The sheep in the background in the perfect demonstration that sheep don’t sound like sheep. Sheep sound like humans imitating sheep.

[@jasonjoseph6497]

She cleaned that entire sheep faster than i can buzz my head. Amazing job

[@delphinium4987]

Fantastic work! But I can't get over the one sheep in the background that sounds like a man yelling "BAAAAA" in the most bored voice ever 😂

[@CarriedAwayWithDolls]

I cannot believe how fast you can shear a sheep! Beautiful job!

[@akiramiyashi]

That's a very nicely peeled potato 🥔❤

[@vivianwinford3681]

Nice this breed already has a clean belly for you. Beautiful job on that fleece. Very smooth surface on the sheep when you finished.

[@afmgreentea]

I love how their voices literally sound like some random dude named Doug is just standing off to the side yelling "Baaah"

[@lemonblossom0]

At first I thought you were trying to do sheep chiropractics

[@sametrianetsanet]

Sooooo satisfying to watch. I watch for meditation purposes. It’s great ASMR. - Blessings to you. I’m in Dallas. I know this Texas heat is brutal. Thanks for sheering our sheep friends. 🩶🐑🙏🏾

[@elizabethstraney7193]

I love how gentle you are with them. That is why they relax so nicely

[@ctrl_alt_delete4729]

They must feel so much better ❤️🐑 ❤️🐑❤️. You do an amazing job!

[@sandykalmeyer9523]

Gorgeous! Love watching you shear.

[@kathe.o.]

Very well behaved animal. As always Katie did a great job.

[@debbielewis6479]

Always enjoy watching you do a shearing. Please do take care of yourself during these very hot days. HYDRATE!!! And, take appropriate breaks so that you don't get too hot. 🙂🐑 🦙❤

[@rainsofhealing]

Yes! And keep proper electrolytes up!

[@downtownfroggie2569]

I love love love your videos. Just saw the short one you did where you debunked the agitations of cruelty to alpacas . I have not seen any of your videos where any animal has been nicked. You guys are so gentle anyone can see how very much you care about the animals you are shearing

[@lauraoneal5146]

I love how you can flip the sheep over and still be as gentle as possible while doing it. To watch how from the first touch of the fleece with the the sheers, you make it seem effortless as the fleece melts off like butter. You are a credit to your profession!!! 🐑💪🏼🙌🏼

[@yvonnewilliams8800]

Great Job. That little sheep was so cooperative in this sweltering heat.

[@lovelightcontinuum]

I'm impressed with the way you hold the sheep to keep the skin as tight and smooth as possible, then make really subtle adjustments, for instance ariund that front armpit and leg, as seen in this video. Beautiful sheep, I was surprised to see it didn't have belly wool. As everyone else is saying, stay cool and hydrated. Lovely to watch your kindness and competence.

[@joanspragg9395]

Wow that looked to come off so smoothly, a testament to how well you shear the fleece and fabulous camera work. Well done ladies. Love watching you and listening to the shears, you should make an hour long ‘shears’ music vid so it will send me to sleep listening to it 😁 xx 🌻🐝

[@whatshername369]

That is a truly beautiful job. Sorry about the heat. Stay hydrated.

[@loriwatkinson6425]

Your skills are a work of art ❤😅 These animals love you! Thanks for all you do.

[@MizuMing]

It's a beautiful thing to watch you shear. 💕

[@MBMCincy63]

It always amazing to see the animals just bend and twist what ever way makes it go easy. Thank you, pleasure watching.

The baa's from the sheep sound so funny! It literally sounds like a random dude behind the camera doing it haha!!

[@lyrieth8833]

Hope you both are staying hydrated!! It always amazes me how clean the actual sheep is compared to their wool!

[@NorroTaku]

cut to early wanted to see the shaven sheepy gallop away 😂

[@wisecanadianwoman]

You do such amazing work. I really enjoy watching your videos.

[@akayawindwood5019]

I’ve been watching as your skills have grown from the first videos - wow! I love your spirit and the care you give to the animals. Thank you for adding the gift of your sweet nature to the world. ❤

[@ThesmartestTem]

You make it look so satisfying and easy. I bet those sheep are much happier without those wool coats in this heat.

[@mccoycyndi]

That'd take me 3 days 2 heat strokes but plenty of time to plan my celebration of life cause me wouldn't live 😂 I'm in Oklahoma we had that big storm no electric for 4 days way blessed because some didn't have it for 7 days. I was beat and certainly wasn't moving much, definitely not shearing a sheep muchless all you do ... Ya'll are some TOUGH LADIES !!!! Love your videos long or short. Stay safe and hydrated !!!!!

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

Oddly, having a strange hankering to be shorn after seeing this masterpiece. It looks relaxing and enjoyable the way you do it. Edit: grammar 🙁

[@ninjanana102]

Awesome video. 😊

[@eco2geek.]

I don't want to start a war, but you seem to treat sheep way more kindly than that guy at _Freshly Peeled_ who acts like domination is the name of the game.

[@jreedandhismongrolhoardofr3776]

he is a fantantic shearer and never seen him be rough with animals. he is a commercial shearer, and right choice is small flock

[@eco2geek.]

@@jreedandhismongrolhoardofr3776 True enough, it looks like he's set up to shear large numbers of sheep at a time at commercial farms. OTOH Right Choice posted a video about their daily life on the road, which consisted of starting out early, driving from one shearing appointment to the next all day, and getting back late. Hard work either way.

I’m sorry, but the baaaaaas in the back are so funny to me. I just think, what are they saying. Lol 😂

I couldn't do this job because I'm to much of a perfectionist I wouldn't be able to leave the ridges you do 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@B1LLBILL]

Can you please be careful, like wtf you almost broke the sheep’s neck.

[@BowieTheOctoBear]

No she didn't, the sheep was comfortable in the maneuver, if it wasn't then it would have struggled a lot and atleast bleated. She is a professional with years of experience.

[@Matrim42]

The sheep was fine, she knows what she’s doing.

[@sarahjo5570]

It does look rough if you're not familiar with how sheep move, but their necks are super flexible and they're more stubborn than people think. But she's definitely not doing anything that would harm the sheep
