We rescued our alpacas from a meat farm three years ago. Previously shy, skittish, and standoffish – they are now enthusiastic, eager, and confident learners. With confidence comes increased competition, so Ken Ramirez is teaching them how to share attention.

In this session, all five alpacas come to station and wait patiently for their turn, which is a major accomplishment. He works on targeting with four of the five and tactile with two of the five. It was a good session!
