Unexpected consequences

The grass is always greener on the other-side or look what I can do with my newly sheared neck!
At least when he pulls it back it doesn't twang the entire fence.

Alpaca Shearing for Lightning, Corduroy and Freddy





We walked down North Rd with our three animals. Lightning really didn't like the cars and kept sitting down. Pulling 250 lbs of alpaca is not easy. The shearing team did 30 alpaca and 6 goats in about 3-4 hours. Then we pulled the alpaca's back up to Bertha. The great thing was that they recognized our gate and immediately stopped pulling and happily trotted into the property and home.
