[AlpacaTalk] RE: male alpaca in trouble

 

<<< Ken:

Glad to hear that Coco is doing much better. Sounds like you need to do
what I need to do -- get serious about halter training and establishing
who the boss really is! I finally got started this morning and
discovered my 'friendly' girl is a spitter unless she gets her own way
-- so will need a little help with her, but these guys are all going
down. Marty McGee Bennett refers to us women as the "Barn Goddess" and
I'm going to ascend my throne and take my rightful place out in the
barn! And with that, you must start thinking of yourself as the
benevolent and kind "Barn God" -- and they will come around!

Again, so very glad to hear things are better!

Me too, Susan, I have discovered this week in trying to separate
everyone and move them around for feeding etc that my male is stubborn
and refuses to walk on lead. I am ready to ascend my throne as
well.....the Barn Goddess should *not* have to drag her subject! I was
just saying last night that I am going to have to start haltering him
every day and walking him only a few yards so he will get the idea he is
not going to his death for crying out loud just because I need him to be
somewhere else.

Ken, glad to hear Coco is doing better. Guess we'll be doing some
halter work in the coming weeks.

Warmly, Janice in NW GA
