  • [quote1290475683=RedEagle] Don't Llamas protect Alpacas? Will you get more than one dog? I hear Alapacas need lots of territory, so I assume having a single dog might not be perfectly effective. [/quote1290475683] Llamas will protect Alpacas. I just have no interest in them. They are double the size of an Alpaca and tend to be a little more aggressive than an Alpaca. I will be using the Fiber from the Alpacas to make clothing and other items and yarn for sale. And actually you can have 6-10 Alpacas on 1 acre of land! I have plenty more than that and plan to use 4 acres for my Alpacas. They are a close knit herd. ;) I will show pics and stories. This is also exciting for us for getting a LGD that will be a working full time job. Not that the Neos dont guard the property but its different. THey also want to come in and lay on the dog beds :)
