this is awsome! but since it's produced under an OGL item, does this mean 
it's an OGL item? he hee heee

i think Sheep Farmer should be a new class(not a Prestige Class). perhaps a 
new combination players might elect to use. start off as a sheep farmer then 
work up to another, standard class like, say, Artillery Crewman. the room 
for Pythonian use is unlimited. i did notice that you overlooked all 
information about border collies. gotta have all your sheepdog skills ya 
know.

as for your nazi weapon system sheep, i noted a joke from an older KODT 
involving the "hurl animal" spell from HACKMASTER. slap some high explosives 
on a group and have your collie drive 'em into allied lines and <BOOM>...

keep up the good work niceguy.
