Word of advice from a seasoned punster....never use your punchline in the setup, it takes away from the comedic effect.
In this instance, I would say:
"Why did the lamb run away from the date?"
Then your joke hits harder!
Just my two cents

What if this falls into the category of anti-joke joke? Then it's technically perfectly executed 🤔
I once had to get my pet ant eyeglasses so we could go out to the comedy club and hear some ant eye jokes
Why did the sheepish sheep run away from his date? Because he was feeling sheep. I mean sheepish. I mean, he really is a sheep, so he can't be sheep-ish. Like, if I'm 7 feet tall, I'm not tall-ish, I'm just tall. To be clear, I'm not that tall. I'd say in some circumstances folks might call me tall-ish, though. I'm about average height, but if you're trying to reach a shelf but can't because you're shorter than me, then you might ask me because I'm tallish. In conclusion, the sheep was feeling shy. And another word for that is sheepish because sheep kind of come off as shy because they're wary of predators, and people are, frankly, predators.
Ba dum tsss.
Bada bing, you've been punned.
I humbly resign to your prowless (as in prowl, which is something that animals do when searching for prey, this being an animal pun thread, but the pun also being in reference to your ability to craft an anti-joke, specifically in the manner of an anti-pun).
Thanks! for the advice : )
