REAL-LIFE LITTLE BO PEEP AGE 20 DEVOTED TO HER 4 PET SHEEP
Meet the real-life Little Bo Peep - a young woman who spends her days tending to her four pet SHEEP. While most people are content to cuddle up next to a cat or a dog, pretty Katie Dunsmore only has eyes for her four woolly friends. But BAAA-RMY Katie is no farmer, her flock - Tilly, Rosemary, Ethel and Pearl - are strictly pets and she says she would never dream of using them for meat or anything else. The four woolly creatures enjoy nothing more than following her about just like the character from the nursery rhyme and snacking on their favourite treats, jelly babies, from out of her hand.She has even trained her beloved sheep to play football with her on the rolling fields near her home in Scunthorpe, Lincs. She said: "My friends all think I'm crazy for having four pet sheep - I'm a girlie girl and I'm not really the kind of person you would expect to enjoy mucking out in the fields with a bunch of sheep but I love it.
