Sounds like a funny question, but there is a not-so-funny answer.
Australia is the world's worst for this, due to a process called 'mulesing' where chunks of flesh are literally sliced off of a live sheep, without any form of painkillers, for their wool. It is very, very cruel.

If you're talking about mulesing as the abuse, then I suppose you could say Australia. But then that is done to save the sheep a hell of a lot more pain, ever heard of Flystrike? Not pretty.
But as to the sexual connotation to this question, per capita head, it would definately have to be New Zealand.
Because for a start, they still actually have shepherds over there and their primary livestock industry is sheep. Most sheep in Australia are kept on huge stations and are herded primarily by motorbike and chopper. So as far as the sheep : people intimacy ratio goes, it's pretty low.
And In the southern hemisphere at least, New Zealanders are known for it. Much like I presume Wales is.

Commonly assumed to be Wales, on a per-capita basis, but in real numerical terms more likely to be somewhere like Australia, due to there being (a) a lot more sheep, and (b) a lot more sheep-farmers out there.
Aussie's answer below confirms my deepest suspicions. Herding the sheep by chopper, eh?

Ok let's get the Welsh sheep jokes out of the way:
What do you call a Welshman with lots of girlfriends?-A shepherd.
What's the definition of safe sex in Wales?
Branding the sheep which kick.
What do you call a Welshman with a sheep under each arm?
A pimp.
How does a Welshman find a sheep in tall grass?
Very satisfying.
On a visit to Wales,an Australian saw a Welshman cuddling a sheep.
"Hey mate," said the Australian,"Where I come from,we shear our sheep."
The Welshman frowned:"Well I'm not shearin' my sheep with anyone!"

Mind you the term sheepsha££er is also widely said in Scotland so it couldn't just be us.
