Dollar


Goodbye to Dollar, the Oldest Sheep in the flock.  Despite her advanced age she stayed spry to the end with a good appetite, though due to tooth loss she managed only alfalfa pellets and grain.  Still, she kept a decent weight for an old animal and looked forward to pasture time and every meal.  She passed away in a dignified manner, keeling over abruptly between 6 AM and 8 AM while in the company of her old friends.  The title of Oldest Sheep now passes to Pickles.
