It was a melancholy day at Lost River Alpacas Sunday when two of our favorites left to go to new homes. But hey, you can't keep them all.
We acquired Sancho through a trade, and he came all the way from Ohio. Sancho is the sweetest gentleman. He was always the last one to leave the barn in the morning, and kept me company until I sprayed his legs with the hose. I always wondered if he just liked my company, or was he waiting for that spray. Then again, he spent most of the time cleaning out the grain feeders for those last morsels.
This is Eve on drugs. She had just had a procedure done on her ear to correct a chronic ear infection. She was definitely a favorite, having been bottle fed for three months, and very friendly. After I loaded her in the trailer I gave her a hug and then started crying.
So our herd is down to 27 now. Both the girls and boys are feeling a bit disconcerted, a bit apprehensive. They know one of them has left, and they will be a little at odds for about a week, and then their new positions will go into effect.
Sancho and Eve have gone to live with some wonderful people in Eastern Oregon, and I know they are going to be well cared for and happy.
A sad farewell - but a happy ending for them in Oregon with their new family.
ReplyDeleteWe stopped in to visit after seeing the sign near the main road. WHAT a find. We spent time seeing the alpacas and talking of our own plans to relocate to the area. I do hope there is a time when we can make another happy ending for some of these dear critters to come home with us. Thanks Linda, Al and Michael for making our visit so warm and welcoming. Blessings and Hugs, Linda and Rick
ReplyDeleteIt is always sad saying 'goodbye' to our animal friends. We have our special memories of each one to remember them.

Just want to add that Eve and Sancho are doing very well in eastern Oregon. While Eve and I don't have that very special relationship she had with Alan and Linda, she always comes to greet me. Sancho has set the standard for behavior for our boys, he is such a sweetheart--still first in line to eat and last to leave. When we stopped at Lost River Alpacas we were actually on vacation and not seriously thinking of purchasing an alpaca, but I'm so glad we did. Lost River will be the first place I check if I'm in the position to purchase another one; the people and animals there are a joy to be around.

ReplyDeleteIt’s obvious some patients with HIV are being enslaved to the antiviral and other supplementary Orthodox medicine just to help suppress the virus and not cure it permanently. I have been with the virus for years until I was introduced by a friend who also narrated her story online on how she was cured of Genital Herpes after using Dr James Herbal Mix Medicine. I was cured of HIV/AIDS after the usage of strong herbal mix medicine Dr, James prepared for me. All thanks to Dr James, for healing me. I've seen the great importance of natural herbs and roots and the wonderful work they have done in people's lives. I wonder why people still spend their money on surgery, injections and drugs each time they are sick.

I was Cured of HIV and my aunt and her husband were cured of Cancer by the same Dr James who uses natural herbs and roots extracts to cure different kinds of illness. Even Dr James proved to the whole world countless times that natural herbs can cure all kinds of diseases, and he cured countless people using natural herbs. I know it is hard to believe but am a living testimony. He prepared the herbal mix medicine and sent it to me through SPEED POST COURIER SERVICES and I took it as he instructed. MORNING AND EVENING FOR 15DAYS, 7days later after the usage of his herbal mix medicine, I went to the hospital to do a checkup, the results came out, and I was NEGATIVE.
