Interested in a guardian llama? 
Many of our llamas have gone on to successfully guard sheep, goats, and alpacas. 
We keep several sheep to check out which of the llamas show those guarding instincts.
Most llamas do not naturally guard until they are adults of 2-3 years.  Until then, they enjoy being youngsters and leave the work to the grown-ups!

                                 
Many of our For Sale Llamas may make suitable guardians. We do not guarantee guarding ability but will gladly work with you if you think the animal is not doing the job.   Guardians can be geldings or females ( or one of each!) however we do not recommend intact males.  Many of our past clients have found two llamas will guard as well as one and the llamas are happier this way.  Also - when weaning time comes - no need to  make a decision on which group has the protection - just send a llama with each! 

Prices start at $600 and are based on training and experience.
