I love everything about this except the blur across the face (I'm assuming fence wire?)

I like the expression, the sharp focus, blurred background - that all is good. The inquisitive look also makes this a nice picture.

But I did not score it very high because of the black vignette. That creates a gloomy mood that, in my opinion, doesn't jive with the ewe's cheeky looks.

Did you try different processing? High key, with a lighter vignette, for example?
