Christchurch woman Caroline Thomson’s pet sheep has serious smarts.
She’s trained Lucky to do over 30 different commands. He’ll sit, play ball, do a bow and even jump through a hoop.
Like dog training, Thomson offers rewards for good work.
“I think people just haven’t tried, personally,” she said of her sheep-training talent.
Thomson teaches Lucky in five minute increments a few times over the course of a week.

She’s been teaching him tricks since he was a little lamb.
The now six-year-old 120kg sheep is what Thompson calls “a big fat cat from the city”.
