There are a whole lot of cute animals in the world. Besides the obvious like dogs and cats, we have pandas, koalas, hedgehogs, bunnies, and many, many more. However, there’s one sickeningly cute animal breed that many people have never heard of – and that’s the blacknose sheep. The blacknose sheep is truly one of the cutest animals I have ever laid eyes on, and I think you’ll agree. Let’s take a look, shall we?!
The Valais blacknose sheep originated in the Valais region of Switzerland, and they honestly look like live stuffed animals. They are super fluffy, have black faces and black leg patches, and have adorably floppy ears.
What’s even more adorable is that this breed of sheep is described as having a dog-like temperament. They are extremely friendly, gentle, and very social with humans.
So, why don’t we see more of the blacknose sheep, given how cute they are? Well, there is currently an established breeding program in New Zealand, with plans to expand breeding programs into the United Kingdom, United States, and Canada.
So, if you have a bit of land and are looking to add one of these adorably fluffy friends to your pet family, there might be a breeder available near you in the near future!
