25.01.2022 Love to everyone from Willow and Paprika. We are growing taller but we will always be young girls at heart.

25.01.2022 Willow enjoying a chat with her cow girlfriends.

23.01.2022 Paprika and Giraffe with new friends Adam and little Maurice.

23.01.2022 Like my lipstick?

22.01.2022 Mucked that last one up didn't I. It was Hercules, not Giraffe who was getting all the cow attention.

19.01.2022 Having a problem with mice? Try burning incense. This has worked well for us whenever the little buggers have moved into the shed. Cost effective and smells good. Also won't hurt pets and wildlife. Suggestion No.2 Mice seem to have an intense dislike for the smell of clove oil and peppermint oil. Try Indian grocery shops for clove oil. Kitchen King Grocers in Phillip has it. Health food stores for peppermint oil.

17.01.2022 Adam's daughter Lucy tempting Giraffe with an apple.

15.01.2022 Volunteer Judy with Willow and Paprika at Adore Tea, Federation Square. We had a great morning of 'meet and greets' and also enjoyed delicious iced watermelon tea compliments of owner Aman. Thanks mate, they went down a treat, and Willow loved the slices of lemon.

15.01.2022 Sadly this will be Alpaca Therapy's last post. For the past seventeen years we have enjoyed sharing our alpacas and llama with the people of Canberra. As a result of changes over which we have no control, plus personal health challenges, we have made the decision to have Paprika, Willow and Giraffe join our other alpacas who are agisted outside Canberra. Sincere thanks to all those of you who have supported and encouraged us over the years. Regards, Nils and Linda Lantzke.

13.01.2022 Michael L. Benedum at 85 years of age, said " I have been asked how I keep going at my age. My formula is to keep busy so that the years go by unnoticed. To despise nothing except selfishness, meanness and corruption. To fear nothing except cowardice, disloyalty and indifference. To covet nothing that is my neighbours' except his kindness of heart and his gentleness of spirit. To think many, many times of my friends and, if possible, seldom of my enemies. As I see it, age is... not a question of years. It is a state of mind. You are as young as your faith, and today I think I have more faith in my fellow man, in my country, and in my God than I have ever had." (The discoverer of more oil than any other single individual). South Penn Oil Company, USA.

12.01.2022 Giraffe with some of his adoring cow fans. One even licked his neck.

11.01.2022 So many loving messages. Our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you. It has been an honour and a privilege to be a part of all of your lives.... With love, Nils and Linda Lantzke.

09.01.2022 Sincere thanks to Darrell CH and Mike Webb who have done a fantastic job of repairing the alpacas 6m by 6m shed at Wallaroo. The structure was in a dangerous state as a result of past termite attack and was considered to be a knock down rebuild, something that was just not financially possible for us. Fortunately for the alpacas, Darrell and Mike subscribe to the belief that " impossible is not a fact, it's an opinion " Muhammah Ali, champion boxer. With a generous donation of steel supports from Captains Flat resident Daniel le'Blanc, plus two days hard labour on their part, Darrell and Mike have provided the alpacas with a strong, safe all weather shelter, all at no cost. The great generosity of these three men moved me almost to tears.

04.01.2022 Giraffe, Paprika and Willow had a great walk this morning thanks to an enthusiastic group of volunteers from Youth Step Up Step Down.

03.01.2022 Girls skinny dipping.

02.01.2022 This is my contribution to the debate concerning Geronimo the Alpaca. To put it simply, his accusers are basing their evidence on the outdated and false theories of Louis Pasteur who promoted the germ theory ie that germs are responsible for disease. All of us have germs and viruses residing in our bodies. However these entities will only become dangerous if we give them permission to do so. We do this by breathing polluted air and eating harmful foods. We drink heavily chemi...calised water and fear and worry about the future dominate our lives. A man who lived at the same time as Pasteur, a man who many of you have probably never heard of, summed it up beautifully when he said " The microbe (germs, viruses is nothing. The terrain ( the natural health of the body) is everything." This man's name is Antoine Bechamp. If he were alive today, he would say that even if Geronimo does have a marker for bovine tuberculosis, it wouldn't be a threat to the alpaca or anyone else because he is in excellent health thanks to his wonderful carer. Whether you decide to subscribe to the theories of Pasteur or Bechamp, remember that health begins with you. You can either blame ill health on the germ/virus or take a moment to think ( as I am now doing) where have I gone wrong and what can I do to help my body become strong. LONG LIVE GERONIMO !!!

01.01.2022 PLEASE DO. NOT DONATE. ANY MORE. MONEY. TO. THE. ALPACA. THERAPY. CHARITY Thank you to our friends who recently donated funds to Alpaca Therapy via Facebook. Your generous actions were greatly appreciated. However, as we have now ceased providing alpaca therapy services, and requested the Australian Charities and Not - for - Profits Commission to revoke the charity, we cannot draw on the funds collected.... We have kept the Alpaca Therapy Facebook page so we can post photos and news about the alpacas now on agistment. We will contact Facebook and request that they refund your money. Regards, Nils and Linda Lantzke
