Peruvian Motown, one of our herd sires and Rosie, our new livestock puppy have a little competition going on between them for the attention of me and visitors to our farm. Both animals are very outgoing and friendly. Both are convinced that our visitors are here for one reason only, and that is to see them. Sunday, Rosie horned in when our visitors were making over Motown. This so upset Motown that he walked away in disgust at Rosie after he shoved her aside. Today while I was out cleaning up in the fields Motown came to visit me and planted his usual kiss on me. Naturally Rosie came running up to get my attention. Motown was so mad that he chased Rosie back to the barn and then came running back to continue his visit with me. I love the two of them and find this competition between the two quite funny. We have not experienced this kind of thing before with a livestock dog and alpaca vying for attention.
