Lovely photo. I do have a question though. I've noticed when you shear the llamas it's only in that middle section. Is there a reason for that? Is that the best area? Just curious about that one.
Tollykit: It took weeks for things to dry out enough for us to shear this summer. We never did get them all done.
Pricilla: Yes, Dee is very elegant and regal!
Theresa: This is what is called a "barrel cut". That is the prime fleece and the llamas stay warmer if I leave the rest on for the winter.
Linda: Thank you! The bear hasn't been back (knock on wood).
Melissa: Yes, she's a BIG girl and she just turned three so that should be as big as she gets. Her Sire is huge, too.
Nancy: Thank you!
We will be showing Dee at the LOCC Fall Classic Llama Show over Labor Day weekend. We hope she follows in her Sire's footsteps. He's a multiple Grand Champion with his ALSA Halter Champion title!
Lin: You're right, they DO look like a poodle, don't they?!
Jackie: Thank you! They are fabulous creatures and make our lives complete.
Theresa: You're welcome!
Meghann: Thank you!
BT: She does, but she's not full of herself, just very much the Grande Dame!
PJ - Thanks!
Karen @ WOS: Ha! You and me both!
FOS: Some people shear them completely naked and I think it looks horrific. They act like they're horrified to look that way, too! They'd freeze here in the winter if I sheared them like that though.
Very nice!! Wish the rain would stop here so I could get out and groom my llamas.
ReplyDeleteHow regal!

She is lovely, but somehow reminds me of a big poodle!
ReplyDeleteBaby Dee is gorgeous!! She is regal in her stance as if she knows she is something special!!

Awesome today...all of them are always lovely but I think baby Dee is going to be my very favorite!!
I love her!! Happy WW baby Dee you gorgeous doll you!!:-)))
Thanks for the explanation Linda. I knew there had to be a good reason. :)

ReplyDeletewhat a stunning looking animal! i was also wondering the same thing theresa was, thanks for the explanation.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely, svelte figure she cuts! Oh to have such a tiny waist again!
ReplyDeleteGlad to read the explanation, I thought you got side tracked and didn't finishing shearing! See what little I know. She's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBaby Dee looks so proud of herself! As she should be.
