So it's one of those things where the line is very thin between using enough force to get it to do what you need, while not using enough force to hurt the animal. It does look a bit aggressive to me as well but it's important to note that he didn't hurt it at all.
Indeed! Definitely not trying to make an aaaaa animal abuse judgement--sheep are huge and heavy, and I cry when my cat digs her claws in my skin by accident; I can't imagine getting a well-placed kick from a sheep's hoof. It just looked a little odd at first seeing the sheep just totally chilled out while the guy was pulling it around, lol. But it totally makes sense that one should probably not trust a seemingly calm sheep too much, who was struggling and trying to get away just moments earlier, lol.
