A lot of people don't know what they're getting into when they buy large animals or agree to take them from someone else no longer able to care for them. Also, people's life circumstances and ability to provide proper care can change drastically for a number of different reasons. This is why it's important that we 1) educate the public about the time and energy it takes to provide proper care, 2) support responsibly-run rescues and sanctuaries, and 3) destigmatize rehoming animals. Rehoming may seem like a bad thing, especially for animals who are bonded to their humans, but the alternative is a sad, slow decline into severe neglect.

with shearers, large animal vets and farriers(hoof vets) there is a distinct lack of them. i live in a rural area and there are(where) 2 large animal vets within 100 miles of me, one just shut down 2 weeks ago. the local farriers are usually just hillbillies that picked up some hoof cutters and cracked a beer and started hacking away. I don't know of any shearers within 100 miles of me. another issue is that they might not even come out if they cant make enough. i own one miniature horse(use to take care of 12, bought one and skedaddled). i cannot get a farrier to come out and see her. I either live too far away or I don't have enough animals. its the same for vets, they WILL NOT come out unless i have a large number of animals. i have to haul my horse in, and just hope she can get onto the trailer. the worst part is that i live rural, this is where you are supposed to have large animals. people don't want cows and horses in their backyards in the cities. I've mostly just taught myself to trim my own horses feet(when i was 12 lol, now 26). there are tons of online and in person classes if your willing to travel. i have also taught myself to shear because i used to take care of a few sheep and an alpaca. i will not shear other peoples animals.

I live in on a farm in Australia and even though I live in Victoria, which is one of the cooler areas of Australia, we still have very hot and crazy dry summers followed by a rough bush fire season. I agree that every animal that grows a thick fibrous coat (Inc, Sheep, Alpaca, Llama) absolutely needs to be sheered at the beginning of the warmer months. I never say a specific month because obviously in Texas you are now just starting the warmer months and sheering season. In Australia (the southern hemisphere) we are currently in Autumn and almost in Winter. So a lot of Australian and New Zealand farmers won't start shearing until around September which is early spring for us. Plus its usually a month away from lambing for sheep which keeps the udder clean for the lambs and everything much easier to keep clean.

If you had not told us he was crying I might has mustaken some of the sounds for weird sheers sound.

It would be great if humans could treat each other with the kindness & respect shown to these animals! Mad props to the Right Choice Shearing Team!
The way you explained the noises he was making shows how deeply you respect and care for him. I really appreciate it. Keep it up!
😊😊😊
I really like the way you handle animals. I'm a veterinarian technician grew up around stock horses cattle and you are confident in animal feels that you move smoothly and fast and you treat the animals you humanely. Thank you for your service to the llama the Sheep and any other animal you work with
He HAS to feel so much better after you removed that overcoat/blanket. A beautiful boy was hidden under years of neglect.
I love how patient you guys are with him! Poor thing must feel SO much better
Even if he is not perfectly trimmed he is trimmed well enough that he can remember what it is like to me a llama. He can feel the sun and the air on his skin and roll in the dust like nature intended. He is free again!!!
I'm a 72 year old active woman who happened upon one of your videos and I was hooked. Being a farm girl, animal lover and mountain climber, I could not imagine carrying all of that extra weight around! Love the compassion that shines through!
I live in an area where shearers are more concerned about speed than accuracy. Our flocks bear the scars of that priority. It’s a pleasure to watch you work. I love watching you care for these animals!❤️
O God that's horrible!🥺
He did really well for his first haircut. He must feel so much better now. Texas heat is no joke! I can't believe the amount of fiber/blankets that were in that trailer! Nice job!
That's so true! I lived there for 11 years. Even in shorts and a tank top with an umbrella to keep the sun off, 107 f is darned hot! I'm so glad he doesn't have to wear his winter jacket all year now!
I live in Arizona and the heat can get to us too. Down in the Phoenix area its been known to get around 110. Heatstrokes are no joke
Once he fully realizes how good it feels to get rid of all that hair, he just might be inclined to cut in line for the first appointment when it's time for a haircut again.

Poor distressed floofer. You handled him so well, and I'm glad he didn't flail around too much. He must be so much happier!
So relieved to see the saddlebag of fur falling off And your smile no matter how challenging it is is the final touch of satisfaction through it all! Tq!
Great job. You both have such beautiful hearts and souls. Thank you for your kindness towards all the animals you meet ❤❤❤
I've seen you do some overgrown coats before, but that was crazy. I'm thinking his previous owner thought it would be cool to have a lama as a pet, but had no clue how to properly take care of it. It's a good thing that farmer snagged him at an auction.
I know people who don't keep their dogs groomed. Wonder how the previous owner thought they could have a llama. People, please think!!
Poor baby. I bet he was absolutely terrified. But I know he feels a lot better now ❤
What a sweetheart ❤ I could sense his relief as you went along. Thanks for the work you do
Thank you...for talking us through the amazing caring make over❤️ and no swear words so I can show my grandchildren 🐑❤️🐑
I just discovered this channel yesterday and my first reaction was: WHAT? How can a channel about shearing sheep have a million followers?? A few videos later and I can clearly see why, positivity, fun and originality. Keep up the good work!
Welcome to this gang of followers. They make it look so easy. But it's so relaxing to chill out with these women. 🤟🙂🦙💖
They have a tiktok account that became REALLY popular because of the fun personality and fun commentary, plus the really cute animals. Then they expanded on KZhead and basically the whole fan base moved haha
I been watching this channel for ever they are amazing team and I've learn so much lol 😆 😂 so wonderful to animals too
I know....right!
10 minutes of distress for a world of relief. Thank you for your quick efficient shearing that helped him so much.
Poor overgrown guy! I can only imagine how scary getting shorn was for him, and how exhausting for you, but his comfort level is sure to vastly improved because of your diligence and labor. 💖
That was SOOOO satisfying to see him lose that massive blanket. He must feel so much better. Great work. Thank you for caring about animals ❤️
Plus, seeing his lower lip returned to normal right after shearing is soooooo satisfying. It's so nice to see he was no longer overheated 🥰
Omg 60 lbs! 😮
That poor neglected fellow. Thank you for taking care of him in such a gentle way. He must feel a huge amount of relief
Aww what a good boy! 🦙🦙🦙 So distressing hearing him, but what a relief he must have felt. Well done guys 🥰🥰 🦙
I love that you are patient with his reactions. And a good explanation for why you have to continue even though he's stressed--this is what is ultimately best for him, so you need to continue for his sake. Sometimes animals react poorly to things that they really need. It's the carer's job to work through that and around that.
Aww I've helped out at my friend's farm she has llamas and alpacas. I've heard screeching during shearing, but not that high pitched squealing. It was a relief to see him unburdened by that coat. Great job 👏
Poor buddy!! Those cries were so pitiful but I'm sure he's grateful beyond belief for the loss of that horribly thick, matted coat! Beautifully done and thank you for your craft! ❤️
Watching those thick blankets come off is super satisfying, and it makes me happy that the llama is feeling relieved after the shearing ❤
The work that you and your wife do is such an unappreciated and unseen truth of what these beautiful bebe's have to suffer. This little guys was no doubt extremely overheated and scared for his life, but you worked very gently and swift to make this as painless as possible. I am in awe of how well he behaved even though he was so scared. Thank you for sharing such an eye opening experience with us all! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Poor guy. So panicked and his skin!! So red from the tension on the matts. When he started crying my dog looked up from his chew treat. Well done Katie!! Another great job done with compassion and care! Keep up the good work!
I have never understood and will never understand why people get animals and then don't take care if them. I watch your channel religiously and I also watch several farrier channels for horses. These animals suffer from the neglect and sometimes die from it. You are angels with grubby faces to me and to these critters. Thanks for educating the world! ❤️
A lot of people don't know what they're getting into when they buy large animals or agree to take them from someone else no longer able to care for them. Also, people's life circumstances and ability to provide proper care can change drastically for a number of different reasons. This is why it's important that we 1) educate the public about the time and energy it takes to provide proper care, 2) support responsibly-run rescues and sanctuaries, and 3) destigmatize rehoming animals. Rehoming may seem like a bad thing, especially for animals who are bonded to their humans, but the alternative is a sad, slow decline into severe neglect.
@@jfm14 people should look into what owning an animal...any animal entails before they take one on.
with shearers, large animal vets and farriers(hoof vets) there is a distinct lack of them. i live in a rural area and there are(where) 2 large animal vets within 100 miles of me, one just shut down 2 weeks ago. the local farriers are usually just hillbillies that picked up some hoof cutters and cracked a beer and started hacking away. I don't know of any shearers within 100 miles of me. another issue is that they might not even come out if they cant make enough. i own one miniature horse(use to take care of 12, bought one and skedaddled). i cannot get a farrier to come out and see her. I either live too far away or I don't have enough animals. its the same for vets, they WILL NOT come out unless i have a large number of animals. i have to haul my horse in, and just hope she can get onto the trailer. the worst part is that i live rural, this is where you are supposed to have large animals. people don't want cows and horses in their backyards in the cities. I've mostly just taught myself to trim my own horses feet(when i was 12 lol, now 26). there are tons of online and in person classes if your willing to travel. i have also taught myself to shear because i used to take care of a few sheep and an alpaca. i will not shear other peoples animals.
I can't get over how many hoofed animals I've seen videos of and their hooves and coats haven't been properly taken care of.
@@tazzbeauty finding a good farrier is like finding a unicorn. It's a dying trade and they charge insane prices because they absolutely can
Thank you for being gentle and kind with all of the livestock you shear: pets, wool, or food production, you treat them all with the same kindness and respect. Thank you.
So stressful for both of you. I love your compassion and care. My grandparents were graziers in Australia and the damage the seasonal shearers used to do to the poor sheep used to up set me. It is great to see anew generation of shearers giving animals time and respect.
I’m so glad to see you do a long form post with dialogue. I’m fascinated with the shearing process and your narration is both informative and entertaining. Love your humorous take on what is obviously a labor intensive process. Please keep them coming. 🤘🏾
Bless his heart! Hopefully, he will feel so much better now that he’s been shorn! And hopefully next time he’ll be like,”Oh! I remember them! They made me feel so much cooler! Let’s do this!”
I.here him singing. Yes I'm free
Your patience with him was amazing, and that's the thing you two care about the animals, it isn't just a job. And I kept thinking you're gonna feel so much better, but again you guys rock!
I love watching you work. Please keep posting videos. You do such a good service to help those poor llamas feel so much better. I think you should be proud of what you do for a living.
It’s so entertaining to see all that shoring! Thanks Katie! You’re such a lovely person❤!
Love love the long videos. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Great video as always ladies. Edit. That was alot of fiber that the Llama was wearing. Turned out beautiful. I know he has to feel better.
I ❤️ what ya’ll do and how you educate us as you put out your videos and while you’re shearing 🥰! He had to feel so much better 🦙🐑🙏🏻❤️🥰😍
Love how you care for the dear Noodle, and teach us all about proper care. Your channel rocks!
i like the normal speed videos very much, i can really appreciate all the hard work and hours that go into your job. we as viewers always have the option to speed up anyway. thanks for another great video, I'm so glad the poor guy is doing better! hopefully he can get used to being sheered and won't be as afraid.
I loves watching this in real time. He did really good for it being the first time! Those noises, tho! Lol. Reminds me of a toddler going full on drama about something. Lol you guys are great! My granddaughters LOVE watching these, also. It's a good educational watch for them in my opinion. Keep up the good work! Thank you!
Haha, I said the same: you drama Queen. But he did well till the end!
@@waadfrelle That wasn't drama. He truly was scared. You obviously know nothing about animals.
@@lindawalters1836 Obviously. As we are all here to have some fun and make playful remarks. Not unlike the girls themselves often do :)
I love watching you and listening to all the stories! Thank you‼️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your compassion. Getting him done as fast as possible to reduce his stress.
Omg, 151 llamas in one day?! Holy work ethic! I love you two so much with your giant compassionate hearts and incredible skills. 🥰🤗 The critters you meet are so lucky! Thanks for sharing your tremendous gifts with the world! I look forward to each and every video. 💗💞🥰
What a super boy for a first shear!!!! I know they understand you are trying to help them! Don't know about anyone else,but I love the real speed times! I love watching you guys work! And all the different personalities each of them has! One of my fav parts is when your shearing a sheep and they do their "little wiggle" to get comfortable! That is just too cute!!! I'm not sure what it is.....but watching a shearing is very relaxing and zen like. You guys make it look so easy too! But your love for each animal is so beautiful. I can't get enough! I love your narratives as well! I get so excited when I get notified of a new video! Keep up the great work guys!!! Love you both! Stay safe,and keep shearing! You guys are the baaaaadest shearers around!!!💖🐑💖
so nice to see happy animals after the shave! great work Katie!!
I had questions about sunburn and, of course, you explained it!!! :o). I love what you and your wife do for these babies...thank you!! And, I absolutely LOVE watching your work!!!
Poor baby sounded a lot like my sister's cat being put in he's cage to take to the vet. My cat had to come and investigate what was happening. Found everything ok and walked away
My cat looked at me weird too
When I think of animals in100 degree heat wearing wool coats it breaks my heart. So glad you do what you do. Thanks to both of you!!!
Always food to see you and spouse work well and humanely. Love how you love your 4 legged client ❤️ no pain or agony from your hands
well, you made me cry. thank you for being so gentle and thorough
I love watching the coats come off to display the beauty underneath. I also love how empathetic you are to this guys and gals. Thank you.
I was cheering for you and the Llama the entire video. Thank you for explaining the shearing procedure and the behaviors seen and heard.
Ohh poor guy!! 😢 it's such a heartbreaking cry! So glad he gets to have such an awesome team like you ladies taking cate of him! You guys rock!! He must be so relieved
I find watching your work to be calming - you exude so much care, compassion, expertise and patience, and limitless kindness! THANK YOU!
Love your videos however they're never long enough. I could watch you 2 all day. Such a team. So calm with the animals. 💘 🐑 llama alpaca 🇺🇸
Love your videos. To watch in real time is even cooler because you get to see and hear the animals reaction and yours. He must be feeling so much better. My kitty is having a reaction to his noise too. My kitty looks concerned for him.
You are so gentle with them. Especially the ones that have never been shorn or haltered. That beautiful baby will be so much more comfortable now. Thanks for all you do!
I love how you respond to him when he gets upset. Your education is most appreciated!!!
So satisfying watching you trim these Llamas. Especially the really overgrown coats. How great for them to be released from that heavy, hot burden. Thank you for your skill , kindness and caring to prevent nicking them all to the very best of your ability
Im a marine biology student and yet I spend at least a couple of hours a week watching a cow hoof trimmer (hoofgp). Now I'm also addicted to watching you llama/sheep sheering aswell. 😆 Great videos, thank you for making them. X
To see them get shorn is so wonderful knowing they will feel so much better..thank you for helping them.
I love the way you explain everything that is happening, Katie. You are an amazing shearer, and your videos are a delight to watch. Thank you from the South Coast of NSW, Australia 🇦🇺
You do such a spectacular job I get mesmerized watching you shear. It's total Zen🧘♀️
I really do love watching your videos. Watching you help these animals is so satisfying. I like to think every vocalization is 'thank you" or a "keep going" or a *yes, right there! Feels so good" sound.
His cries were getting to me. Had me tearing up. Kept thinking, hold on honey, she's almost done. You'll feel like a new llama in a few minutes. I always enjoy watching you and Darian caring for the animals and treating them with the utmost care and respect. And that is why I first subscribed, and to learn.
It's very obvious that you are very concerned for every animal you deal with and take pains to keep them comfortable and avoid doing any harm to them, not one nick or scrape if you can possibly avoid it. I like to see true caring compassionate professionals at work, like you. Keep up the outstanding work!
What a sweetheart. I'm so glad you liberated him from that heavy jacket. He must feel so much better now! And thankfully he's now at a home where he will be shorn every year. 💖
I love how excited you are about shearing. It’s so fun to watch you!
When the animal quit crying he must have realized how good it felt! Admire the compassion you have for all the animals you shear.
You are the best. So compassionate and professional. He must feel ten years younger and more pain-free from the weight. Thank you.
I never thought I would enjoy your videos as much as I do. Love how quick and gentle you are and I learn from each video. Thank you.
Well done, ladies. I can only imagine how much better he feels after all that weight was removed. Thanks so much for sharing, I really enjoy these longer videos!
How much better he must feel! Thank you for your kindness & gentle care.
Wow his lip even pulled back in/up! Love to watch your videos, thanks for explaining everything so we get to learn about these beautiful animals 🥰
That poor llama he was so scared. I bet he felt better when all 150 lbs of mats were gone. You did a good job on him. I’m glad the animals were taken care of by such a caring person.👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹👍
Honestly... I find it so satisfying... I could sit and watch yall sheer every last 151 of them in real time. Lol 😆 I love how genuine and gentle you guys are ♡♡♡
You are AMAZING! The respect and truly caring for this llama really shows the love you have for your job. I have been watching your videos for a while now and enjoy seeing you care for the animals that you shear. Keep up your great work that you and your wife do. I wish you both much success in your business! Blessings 🙏 😃
I love your content. I can’t imagine how much better he must have felt afterwards. The compassion you have toward the animals you work with shows on each and every video. Working in the heat of Texas must get close to unbearable, yet you never complain (I would) and that goes toward your compassion. Thank you for sharing your experiences and best wishes from San Diego, CA.
Good job ladies! That overgrown boy looks so cool now and his markings are gorgeous! Keep shearing.
"Trapped in fibre", great way to put it. Great job.
I too have just discovered this channel. I was surprised at the number of subscribers, but jolly well done. Llamas aren't very loud, but what a huge relief it must be for him to get rid of his coat. Fascinating stuff. Thank you chaps.
One of the keys to compassion is understanding, great job handling the more difficult ones!
Amazing 🤩 first thanks to the people who rescued him from the auction 👍 and then the shearing 🎉 all I kept thinking was that has got to feel so good for him, air actually touching his skin, the weight being sheared away. Awesome job as Always Katie, you are amazing and you can just tell you care about the animals 💙💙🙏🙏😇😇
Katie, you are a very cool human. It’s clear to see this is more than a job for you! The way you are gentle with even the toughest of customers shows how much you care. Thank you for what you do and how you do it!
I absolutely love watching how caring and loving you are in shearing the animals, knowing what they have been thru and are going thru. You are a very Compassionate person.
Despite his crying, I was amazed by his willingness to stay still. I had found you in "shorts", then subbed for the relaxing watching you transform a living being. Amazing women you both are! Shivering black bell thumbs up 👍🏻😎.
I live in on a farm in Australia and even though I live in Victoria, which is one of the cooler areas of Australia, we still have very hot and crazy dry summers followed by a rough bush fire season. I agree that every animal that grows a thick fibrous coat (Inc, Sheep, Alpaca, Llama) absolutely needs to be sheered at the beginning of the warmer months. I never say a specific month because obviously in Texas you are now just starting the warmer months and sheering season. In Australia (the southern hemisphere) we are currently in Autumn and almost in Winter. So a lot of Australian and New Zealand farmers won't start shearing until around September which is early spring for us. Plus its usually a month away from lambing for sheep which keeps the udder clean for the lambs and everything much easier to keep clean.
The closest I have never been to a llama, alpaca or sheep is at the petting zoo. Even though I know nothing about your line of work, I really love watching and listening to you explain what you are doing. It is so obvious the love, care and respect you have for your animals. I love watching you work.
Can you just imagine how relieved he was to get out from under all his overgrowth he just got what he needed and by a awesome person who has such a gentle touch that crying was so hard to hear thanks for helping him ❤
WOW! Bless you for this job well done. i'd say that Llama handled his 'hair cut' like a champ, all things considered. thnx for sharing your profession and the passion you have for all the critters you shear. ❤
I can’t imagine what that must have felt like under there! He got instant relief. It’s already near 100 down here (tx)! He was so well behaved - that was amazing honestly. What do you guys do with that trailer full of hair?!?! Imagine losing that driving down the Highway! Great work ❤️
Its too bad that we can't communicate with them and tell them that it will be very scary but they will feel so much better afterwards. I'm so glad you have the nerve to get through it and help him.
I just love to watch you helping these beautiful animals. So satisfying and you are very gentle and kind. Thank God for you and your wife! ❤️
Sounds like he is imitating the sheers... bless his heart. And watching dad pace back and forth is soooo sweet.
I love what you guys do to help the poor babies out. Awesome job to the both of you❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
I love watching your videos and get so excited when a new one pops up on my feed. I'm so glad you were able to help him, along with over 150 others on top of that. You two are simply amazing!
It is hard to hear his cries. Knowing that you will make his days easier is a comfort. Poor baby!! Good groomer.
For his first time I was amazed at how little he reacted. It appeared the trimmer noise near his ears bothered him more than the feel. Of course, not carelessly nicking his tender skin contributed a great deal toward his overall trust and comfort with the whole process.
I'm only halfway through and he looks soooo much better than he started out as. Just the first mat coming off made a huge difference. Poor baby was so miserable and scared, but I bet he feels a whole world better afterwards.
