Residents > Rippy, the sheep

Euripides a.k.a. Rippy was advertised on Craigslist as "Free Male Sheep". He had lived in a backyard in Martinez, CA. He apparently came with the property when the current owners bought it. The family desired to redesign the backyard to be a "place for people". The ram, named "Rippy" by the grandchild, who could not pronounce the longer name needed to be relocated as he is very territorial (as we soon 'painfully' experienced ourselves). Rippy can be very sweet, chatty and affectionate, and the next moment ram you into the ground if you don't watch it! They don't call rams buttheads for nothing!
