Smartie | Sheep

Love can move mountains - who hasn't heard this saying? But love can do much more: out of love for his girlfriend, a young farmer sold all his animals because she didn't like the smell.

Paula | Sheep

When Paula was born, she was given just one task: to produce wool, as the farm on which she was born made a living by producing various accessories, such as felt bags or vests, with this very wool. However, even the "simplest task" did not seem to be able to fulfill Paula in the eyes…

Herkules | Sheep

In our fast-moving times, which are all about efficiency and utility, many breeds have lost their importance.
