Labrador meets Llama
Bucky, a one-year-old Labrador that belongs to some friends of ours, meets Catazo, a male llama that we keep as a pet out at our friend's farm. Nothing like a little inter-species bonding!
We're lucky the greeting turned out this way. Llamas are very suspicious of dogs, as they look like predators that may attack. As a consequence, llamas will sometimes jump on dogs they don't know, which is what they would do in the wild if a predator got mixed in with their group. They also could, of course, spit at the dog, which is disgusting to say the least since llamas spit their stomach contents. Fortunately, 'Tazo rarely spits -- which is good, especially since Bucky probably would have enjoyed it!
