NEW FAMILY MEMBER
Snoopy, our llama now has his 'brother' back with him. When Laurie gave us Snoopy she sold Jerry to another lady. Almost a year later the other lady decided she couldn't afford to keep him any longer. She advertised him for sale on one of the spin lists and I recognized him. About a month ago we decided they needed to be reunited. I had one big problem as I no longer own a horse trailer and I needed a way to get him back home. We have a big pickup with a high cap on the back and decided to ride over there and see if Jerry would get in the back and ride home. We put some hay bales down for steps so he could get in. At first the ladies husband tried to get him to go in the truck and he wouldn't. Then Russ got in the back and he jumped right in and kushed (laid down). I think he recognized him and knew he was going home. I was very nervous about the two hour trip home but he was an angle. He munched his treats and watched out the window as we rolled down I-75. We have kinda put the cart before the horse by acquiring fiber pets before we find a farm to buy but who could resist. I now have a spinning flock of two. Aren't they just the cutest???
