The sheep who thinks he’s a dog
Marley the sheep was adopted by Ali Vaughan and her family from Cumbria when he was just one month old.
Ali told Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Radio 5 live's Anna Foster that Marley spent a lot of time with their pet dog Jess, after he developed an infection.
Jess and Marley became best friends – with Marley joining Jess for walks and eating dog biscuits.
Now the family's other sheep, Bear, is giving Marley lessons on how to be a ‘proper’ sheep.
