I did this recently when I walked past someone's garden and their pet sheep came over to see me. I was happily chatting away to the sheep about how much it had been munching away and how hot it must be with all that wool when a very confused postman I had not noticed responded

Hey everyone, check out this guy who doesn't even have a pet sheep.

who doesn't even have a pet sheep.

"You can't say everyone has a pet sheep, when everyone does not have a pet sheep. We're going to get nasty letters saying 'Where's my pet sheep? Why don't I have a pet sheep?'"

Why would that be, I wonder...?

Farmers, I assume. It was a small village with a lot of farms

Here in the states at least, it can get you an agriculture tax break. Lots of people will have pet goats, sheep, donkeys etc..
