Introduction

Making The Most of Your Llama attempts to prepare the farm and the new owner for the llama(s) by offering some suggestions related to housing, health, management and training. The reader is encouraged to write in the book, take it to the barn and add pertinent information related to his or her geographic location.
Making The Most of Your Llama answers some of the frequently asked questions by the curious, the browser, the prospective buyer and the new owner. The information herein comes from respected owners, veterinarians and textbooks related to this unique and loveable creature.
Although much of the information in this book is pertinent to any llama and reference is made to breeding llamas and caring for the cria, the primary focus of this book is on the working llama. A working llama packs or pulls cart.
