When I went through a long illness, I couldn’t get anyone to shear my goats around here, didn’t last 6 yrs but it was over two. It was very distressing to me & I was so grateful when an old sheep shearer helped me out! My girls were plenty loaded down, matted & dirty. And obstreperous! I was amazed at how steady this llama stood for a shearing! Very satisfying to see. May this creature know nothing but good care from now on.
Me too. I could see she was cautious at first. Poor creature. I used to work on a horse farm and we got in quite a few in terrible condition. I bought one who couldn’t be a school horse that had serious ringbone but worse, a blown knee and split hoof. He’d been a well known eventing horse who took a jump wrong. His owner kept him until he was 14 but the damage wasn’t properly remediated. It took almost a year of care for the foot to stabilize the crack and while we couldn’t entirely mend it, he would be ok for the rest of his life with proper shoeing. The knee was beyond repair but we could medicate and make him more comfortable. His right front foot occasionally drag so he couldn’t be ridden over pavement or grass or by anyone heavy so my daughter used to lie on his back in summer and read. Or ride him at a walk or fast walk for exercise in the sand ring. He was utterly bomb proof. I used to use him for summer camps to teach basic safety and grooming. He loved people. With me he had a silly sense of humor, stealing hats, tools, and tickling me while I groomed him. In time he also loved our farrier and would untie his apron while he worked. He lived to be 22. He was the most lovely boy.
Legitimately very impressed with how calm this llama is. No kicking or freaking out. Well done by the shearer too, no nonsense, careful and attentive to the animal's behavior.
At some point the Llama must have become tired of all that mess. Looks like Llama abuse to me. It's REALLY heavy. Animals vibe...they know when you're helping them. Plus I bet it feels really good...it's itchy under there.
Llamas are all over the place on behavior during shearing. It’s maybe one in twenty or thirty that will just stand calmly. If it’s an intact male you can just forget about cooperation
I have just finished watching 4 hours of these ladies helping the animals. Such patience and care. A lot of hard work but the devotion. Thank you ladies for the great work you do 😊
Love how you're so caring and careful with the animals. Can't get over this guy I made the mistake of watching and he left big gashes all over a sheep. That baby looked so beautiful and proud at the end. Special shout out to your awesome wife and cinematographer!
@@shanawilson8541 I know she is, and her wife is filming. I was referring to another channel where the guy left gashes all over the sheep. I follow this couple on Instagram as well.
Sometimes cuts and nicks happen because there are irregularities under all the coat that the shearer can’t see or feel until the cut has happened. Shears are incredibly sharp - even the non electric types! The animal might also choose to move at just the wrong time, because it isn’t comfortable in the position it was placed for the shearer to work. I can’t think of a single shearer who would NOT be upset about accidentally curing and hurting an animal under their care. This is a really precise skill that takes a LOT of practice to do well, and make it look effortless. Kudos to folks willing to apprentice, study, learn, and practice this vital art for animal welfare.
I have spent many hours in a shearing shed in NZ ,not shearing but wool handling and sheep pen filling. You are a pleasure to watch, careful, confident dominating. Keep up the great work
Such a beautiful pattern hiding under all those mats! Poor baby looked like he lost half his weight by the time he was done and looks so much better. Wonderful job!
I've watched a lot of people doing shearing to different animals and I must say you and your wife are the best I've ever seen in your job ty.xx from Glasgow Scotland x

Shanta Williams(So) the reason the other ones had big ashes on them in that as if they explained at the end it's because the the match that were in the sheep we're so tight that it pulled the skin and made the razor cut into them it wasn't that he was doing it wrong it's because the maps were so tight against the skin that it pulled what he was shaving it that the shaver cut into it that's how the guy explained it at the end
@@snuassauns; they might not have had a choice. Livestock can just wander off, sheep are renowned for it. If the farmer/owner doesn’t find them in the next muster, the animal goes without a haircut. Usually, if they don’t reappear, it’s because they were killed by something and the missed haircut is the least of their problems. Occasionally the animal comes wandering back in; or get caught by another farmer; months/years later and a long overdue shave is given as soon as possible. Of course, there’s also the possibility that the previous owners didn’t know they need to shear their family pet and things just got out of hand. We don’t really know.
You can see he's freaking pissed about it at first, but his ears gradually started perking up a little bit as the heavy matting was shorn off. I bet he was so much more comfortable afterwards. 💖
What a transformation. I'm impressed with how still that llama was with not having been sheered for 6 years. Great job, Katie, for mastering the llama's huge fleece removal. I especially loved how you removed the big, super heavy blanket in multiple sheers and dropped it away from the animal. And going back to do a final finishing sheer made that a beautiful video and llama in the end.
He went from a plump Llama to a skinny one. He needs more groceries for that gorgeous giraffe colored body. The dirt accumulated in his fleece had to be murder on your blades. I love that you always have a smile and such a happy attitude. New to channel but now a dedicated viewer. Used to have sheep ( spinners flock) and a Angora goat.
When shearing that tail, the little flicker of "eek! I can move it again!" was felt through my whole being. What a magnificent creature, alas!! Looked quite dandy (and maybe quietly dancing) and sweet once it was all done! I've taken in foster fuzzies (and squawkers, quackers, shelled, and just about any other animal) and it's always a pleasure to see their true selves pop out from the weight of their pasts! 🥰
You're always so careful with the animals you shear! This must be back- breaking work, at times, but you always seem so happy, once the animal is free of all that weight. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. Much Respect!
Poor guy, he is so skinny under all that fleece that noone could tell. Thank you for being so gentle with him. It looks like he's been through a lot and hopefully is now on the way to recovery.
What a good boy he was. He almost seemed to enjoy his neck being done. What lovely fiber he will have next year. So skinny under all that too. I'm thankful he is in better care now. I miss your voice over!
The stomp at the end, PRICELESS. She was like well damn, I feel good, looking back at you the whole time! Obviously appreciative! I know you've got to love what you do!!! It's SO rewarding!
For not being shorn for all those years, he didn't move or complain. You are fantastic with the animals, plus animals can sense a person's genuine love for them. Thank you ❤❤
Stunning result for this sweet little gal. Beautiful attention to detail that not only looks real fine, she will feel more comfortable and be healthier as a result. Great team work. Stay safe, be strong.
You did an amazing job! You have a gentle touch, exactly what this baby needed (now, a good bath, scratch all it's itches and itch all it's scratches).
Poor thing. Imagine wearing all those blankets for all those years. Must have been torture. And not to mention having all that fur over the butt where there was probably poo getting stuck to it and stinking up the poor lama. S/he must have felt like we do after a satisfying shower...relieved. To the lama you're an angel... I think you're an angel too ❤
Amazing job - quick and gentle - cutting the mats so as to avoid them pulling at the llama's skin - very impressive. It's also wonderful to watch because it's nice to think how much more comfy the beastie will be afterwards - good job.
That poor llama. Stood so calmly awaiting the salvation you brought. A very soothing video before bedtime. Thank You for sharing this with us. Such kindness & patience. Bless ya'll baby!😘
You and your wife are absolutely incredible. The way you work and how calm and gentle you are with these animals, not like some of the other shearers that I have seen on this medium. They could all take lessons from you two.
You can tell when they feel the air on their skin after being neglected for so long. They just relax. But you see the skin flakes and problems and you just want to cry these animals are so wonderful to see them so neglected is heart breaking. THANK YOU
I really missed your usual super-informative and educational commentary. It's so gratifying to see you help these animals. Can't begin to imagine how much better this llama feels. Thank you for sharing your kindness and care with us. Best to you and your sweet wife from Pennsylvania. Hope you didn't get hit by that recent storm too much. Mad respect!
Truly a genuine PROFESSIONAL and an EXPERT are your craft and art of Shearing, - The lama could FEEL you ~ she sensed you are there to help her, - I could see all her discomfort just be sheared away- you gave her such comfort and releif that comes from having all that matted yarn removed, ~ She feels vibrant and uninhibited from all the weight of her yarn removed, ie approx. 90lbs
You have amazing skills in taking these beautiful animals and shearing off the unkempt rough mass of extra weight to reveal the true nature of their wonderous vision. Thank you for being that great animal care expert.
The llama was amazingly still through the whole process except for a few instances. I like how you went back over it after the initial cut and smoothed it out. I know he/she feels much better now! Great job!!
Excellent job, beautifully and kindly done. The effort you took to ensure the pull on her skin by her fleece did not hurt was awesome. She looked so proud and almost regal when you were done. Lovely animal and lovely vets. Great to watch. Thanks for the video. 🤗 💐💐🍫🍫🍹🍹😍
I am always so impressed by your skills. The way you make the animals as secure as possible and work to keep them comfortable and at the same time you can concentrate on your work. I could watch you do this for hours.
i just paused at the end of the video and teared up i love llamas so much i dont know why but good lord he looks so relieved and she showed so much care and patience for him it just touched my heart i love him lol and i love these two women and what they do for these animals
I’m loving him standing so proud, catching the breeze and allowing the sunshine to really get a look at how beautiful he is. Ladies, you do an awesome job, you make it look easy when it’s surely not and you know ur animals. Thanks for sharing
I like how every time the clippers got near it's tail it would wag and twitch it so the sheerer would know, "That's my tail! It stays." I love the pattern on this one. Total cutie.
I know nothing about the wool. His color pattern is stunning, to me! I really think he's beautiful. I liked how you stopped when he twisted his head. It seemed like it reassured him, and he calmed down. If I were going to own a Llama this would be one of my favorite color choices! Thank you for another great video! GOD bless
That llama was incredibly patient and sweet considering it hadn’t been sheared in over 6 years!!! Only threw a few tiny jerks at you instead of full on fighting! Glad it’s all shorn and comfy now!
Always mesmerizing to watch you shear animals. It may also have to do with your calm energy and working with them. In either case thanks for the wonderful where you work with each and everyone.
Love how you took time to get this beautiful animal shorn. Then you went over the body again to make it more clean. What a stunning coat she has after being shorn too! Great job!!
Thank you for being SO gentle with this beautiful animal that had been so neglected. It was a joy to watch this video in regular speed. God bless you!!! 💜 🙏✌️🌞💐🎶
What a good boy sitting so still for you! And after 6 years of not getting shorn! My mare got clipped annually and she would have been doing a jig the whole time 😂And his patterning is *gorgeous* !
This makes me want to cry. He/she looked so regal but tentative, walking out of the corral. Great job, Katie. I like the llama's little delay with its head over your shoulder as you were releasing it from the halter. It was like, "Thanks, Katie"❤.😢
I held my breath through several parts of this video. The work you do is truly a kindness to these animals! Here’s hoping you get to visit this friend again on a regular basis.
You two are so intuitive to start with and then with thoughtful (earned some bone fides & education)& kindness added. Thanks for doing what you do for so many. Wishing you the very best for many years to come. p.s. I'd throw in a few bucks if we get to exact cloning of you both. More animals deserve the best mankind has to offer.
Beautiful grooming job! That poor llama must have felt so much better afterward. And your hand/arm/shoulders/neck must have ached. Thank you for being so kind and skillful.🌸
You are so gentle with the animals. I'm addicted in watching you shear. Something very satisfying about it. Great job. Can't wait to watch the Playlist.
Love your connection with the animals you work with, very conscientious! If the world where only half as caring, there would be no poverty. Bless you, and your wife. Wishing you both good health and a long and happy life.
Who would of thought, that watching the two of you sheer sheep and Llama, would be so relaxing. Thanks for sharing!! At the end, watching them stroll away....it just makes me smile.
Wow. Knowing you work in Texas Nd living in Houston myself I couldn't imagine having to wear a heavy winter coat year round. It takes a very special person for these animals to be so calm while you shear them and to know you're there to help. I realize you are paid by the new owners to help but keep up the great work fixing human screw ups. God Bless you for what you're doing.
While I was watching this video I felt the relief on my skin that the llama certainly felt after years of neglect. Well done, now looking younger and happier.
He seems so trusting of you ! You and your Wife are doing a good thing's for all the animals that you shared I pray that you both have a wonderful day and a long life together !!🌹🕊️🌹
How oddly hypnotic! All I could think of from the beginning was that poor baby was scared but I watched him calm down and realize he was being freed from that mountain of wool. It was pretty amazing to watch.

No resistance whatsoever, the relief the animal is showing..... that is so rewarding.
Thanks for sharing and shearing..
fr, I feel like they visibly loosened up a bit as soon as they felt the matting start to come off
Learn to be gentle please. It's been 6 years 😮😢
Well he is tied up. Can’t move his head at all. But he does seem fairly calm and not moving his back end.
Wie kann man sein Tier nur so vernachlässigen. Quälerei.
Legitimately very impressed with how calm this llama is. No kicking or freaking out. Well done by the shearer too, no nonsense, careful and attentive to the animal's behavior.
I think this llama is just feeling like "Jeez, you are finally going to remove all of this fur ? I already love you so much"
At some point the Llama must have become tired of all that mess.
Looks like Llama abuse to me.
It's REALLY heavy.
Animals vibe...they know when you're helping them.

Если вас за нос приковать к забору будете спокойны.
The weight and pain he had with all those mats and pulling on his skin. He had to feel like a new man, poor baby!😊

You are such a positive influence. You are a blessed savior for these animals. I love your videos.

Poor baby 😭😭. I cant imagine how that feels. You changed his life drastically ❤👏
Very satisfying to see some love given to this big guy. Hopefully, his current home keeps his looking dapper and shorn on the reg.

Such a beautiful animal. Katie is an absolute expert in shearing animals. I'd love to see the wool after it's been cleaned and spun. ❤️😊
Unfortunately after 7 years it is too tangled and dirty. I am a knitter using natural materials only.
I love how patient you are with that poor baby. I'm sure that the difference in comfort is absolutely HUGE!
And the happy tail wag says it all 😍
Shanta Williams(So) the reason the other ones had big ashes on them in that as if they explained at the end it's because the the match that were in the sheep we're so tight that it pulled the skin and made the razor cut into them it wasn't that he was doing it wrong it's because the maps were so tight against the skin that it pulled what he was shaving it that the shaver cut into it that's how the guy explained it at the end
I wonder what all that fur weighted.
Even if he’s not entirely happy about the haircut, I can only imagine how much more comfortable he is right now.
Exactly! He's a smart boy and I know hell be more relaxed in the future.🤘🏼
He said he feels light as a feather
Comfort haircut
He did great for not having been shorn is so long!
I don't understand why they let him go do long without a cut.

Thank you for being SO gentle with this beautiful animal that had been so neglected. It was a joy to watch this video in regular speed. God bless you!!! 💜 🙏✌️🌞💐🎶
Какая красотка была спрятана под этой сбитой шерстью ! Сейчас она будет чувствовать крылья у себя на спине !!! Мастеру СПАСИБО !!!!
It brings me happiness seeing people do what they love all while helping somebody in need ☺️ 🥂
I love how caring you are when working with the animals
What a good boy sitting so still for you! And after 6 years of not getting shorn! My mare got clipped annually and she would have been doing a jig the whole time 😂And his patterning is *gorgeous* !
This makes me want to cry. He/she looked so regal but tentative, walking out of the corral. Great job, Katie. I like the llama's little delay with its head over your shoulder as you were releasing it from the halter. It was like, "Thanks, Katie"❤.😢
Great job ,you are so gentle with the animals, you truly are a gift from God for these animals. God.❤ bless you ❤❤and.
I held my breath through several parts of this video. The work you do is truly a kindness to these animals! Here’s hoping you get to visit this friend again on a regular basis.
You can tell the llama likes being sheared, he's very still and not fidgeting. It must be a relief to get the weight and itchiness off...
This guy would've produced such wonderful fleece if he was cared for properly!! He's such a beautiful llama under all those mats!
Good thing he will produce more in a year I guess
Can this "golden fleece" be used?
@@ВикторияПостоева-з3ж It can, although alpaca fleece is considered better.
@@chilltime4878 Thank you.
Fleece that matted is not viable.
She seems very happy 😃
I love your videos but I like when you narrate. You have a great personality and it keeps me watching!!
I love seeing your art! It has to be Art with how beautiful you can make these creatures look when you are finished!
You two are so intuitive to start with and then with thoughtful (earned some bone fides & education)& kindness added. Thanks for doing what you do for so many. Wishing you the very best for many years to come. p.s. I'd throw in a few bucks if we get to exact cloning of you both. More animals deserve the best mankind has to offer.
You were so gentle! I bet he felt the breeze on his skin for the first time. You are wonderful!!!
What a calm llama, and beautiful markings!
Must have been such a relief.
A pobre lhama deve ter sentido um alívio enorme! Parabéns a tosadora. Gentil e precisa.
😊 Your 😊 girls 😊 are 😊 all 😊 good 😊😊😊😊
Beautiful grooming job! That poor llama must have felt so much better afterward. And your hand/arm/shoulders/neck must have ached. Thank you for being so kind and skillful.🌸
You are so gentle with the animals. I'm addicted in watching you shear. Something very satisfying about it. Great job. Can't wait to watch the Playlist.
I so enjoy watching you shear these adorable animals- they are lucky to have you and your wife care enough to help. Thank you for sharing.
Love your connection with the animals you work with, very conscientious! If the world where only half as caring, there would be no poverty. Bless you, and your wife. Wishing you both good health and a long and happy life.
Who would of thought, that watching the two of you sheer sheep and Llama, would be so relaxing. Thanks for sharing!!
At the end, watching them stroll away....it just makes me smile.
How pretty, the tail was wagging, I'm sure the llama is happy to get the weight off, great job.
Surely it did🎉
Awww he is standing so perfectly still!! What a sweetie
She is beautiful, the Shearer was so gentle. Great job after all that fiber. She can't figure out where she went. She is a lovely animal.
Bless your heart! He was so patient with you. He’s been waiting years for relief. You rock!!!
Your gentleness and patience reveals a lot in your character. The way you work with animals only comes with being a good person. Peace out.
I never get tired of watching your videos. you do such an awesome job for every animal. Great job you ladies do.
I love watching you work. You do it with love and compassion. Thank you.
You were very compassionate, and gentle with him, I'm sure he appreciated it
Wow. Knowing you work in Texas Nd living in Houston myself I couldn't imagine having to wear a heavy winter coat year round. It takes a very special person for these animals to be so calm while you shear them and to know you're there to help. I realize you are paid by the new owners to help but keep up the great work fixing human screw ups. God Bless you for what you're doing.
While I was watching this video I felt the relief on my skin that the llama certainly felt after years of neglect.
Well done, now looking younger and happier.
Oh wow! He’s so good! Not even an attempted kick or spit! Thank you for showing calm and peaceful animal care.
I am Amazed at your gentle tenderness shearing the alpaca!!!!!
Love the video!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
Ur a true blessing! The best part of the shearing process is seeing these poor animals relieved. Thank u for all u do!
He seems so trusting of you !
You and your Wife are doing a good thing's for all the animals that you shared I pray that you both have a wonderful day and a long life together !!🌹🕊️🌹
How oddly hypnotic! All I could think of from the beginning was that poor baby was scared but I watched him calm down and realize he was being freed from that mountain of wool. It was pretty amazing to watch.
Can’t tell you how relaxed and calming watching you do what you do! I love every minute of your videos. I’d love to see you do it person !
