Isaac Scruton

Isaac Scruton, Teeswater sheep breeder in Rochester, NH, works in Strafford County and the Seacoast near Portsmouth. He applies years of hands-on experience to registering his flock with the American Teeswater Sheep Breeders Association and follows recommended health protocols, including regular hoof trimming, vaccination schedules, and routine veterinary partnership.

His sheep graze on rotational pastures seeded with mixed grasses and retreat to a well-ventilated barn where they receive gentle handling from the lambing pen onward. Scruton’s family-run farm philosophy emphasizes low-stress socialization, resulting in calm animals noted by fiber artists and weavers for both temperament and fleece consistency.

Beyond fleece quality, the farm’s long, lustrous locks have won ribbons at the county fair, reflecting a focus on selective breeding and animal welfare. Seasonal updates on care techniques and shearing practices are shared within a local community of spinning and weaving enthusiasts.
