alpaca (and llama are actually related closely to camels, used in south america for fiber and packing...
the llama is larger, while the alpaca is relitivly small, i prefer alpaca wool to llama but both are amazingly soft with alot of loft. Alpaca - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
id love a couple one day, there sooo cute lol
Ha! I KNEW it! Camel did come to mind, but then I said no, can't be. Well I'll be. I remembered something other then the norm! LOL My brain still is intact! Hey, thanks for the information!
...but then get another email telling me there going to make my life a living hell and im going to come home one day and the kittens will be gone...
at that point i called the cops, filed a report and sent them a copy of the emails...
I had a person email me some threats. I reported him to his postmaster of his IP. He emailed me for a different account the next day with more threats as his email account had been shut down. So I forwarded that to the new postmaster. Next day I get a email from this guys mother, she got fired as he had used her email account at work to threaten me.

that is great info, will definatily keep that in mind should i need it again.
macrina, oooo naughty, shoudlnt be tempting me with yummy alpaca wool! lol
lola, thank you, i personally think they are stunning, unfortunatly most people hear chinese crested and their mind automatically goes to those poor dogs of the worlds ugliest dog contest...
most of the dogs on that contest are actually mixed breeds and frequently from bad breeders and bad situations/rescues
a well cared for crestie is actually a stunning sight, they dont walk they prance, they even have a trot just like a horse and run like the wind, (its bleived they are a mixture of african terriers and an african sighthound) they run just like greyhounds with a super long stride, it looks like they are flying.
they make excelent ratters if you get one with the instincts intact.
the only "downside" is they bond incredibly strongly with their people (prone to seperation anxiety) and can be rather standoffish with strangers.
my male is a hairless and 5 1/2lbs, my female is a powderpuff and between 10-10 1/2lbs. there usually judge by height rather than weight through because theres some variation in builds, theres the "racey style" both jasper and ruby are racey, they have a slim body, deep ribcage and a very elegant silohuette, very sighthound type body, then theres the "stocky style" which tends to be an overall wider dog, wider rib cage, with a more terrier style body.
there not like "normal" dogs though, think dogs, crossed with cats, crossed with monkeys...from out-of-space lol

I agree, they ARE stunning...very elegant structure, lovely faces, and you can tell by Ruby's stance that their movement must be a real thing of beauty to watch. My chi's "prance" too, and it's really one of my (many) favorite things about them.
Foxy, I'll admit to being one of those people who thought Chinese Cresteds were homely dogs, and all because I'd never seen one that looked as it should. Yours are gorgeous!
*blushes* thanks guys, i told them and ruby just gave me this look like "yup...i know" :P shes such a diva sometimes, but man...shes the love of my life :P
your right, she does look like a unicorn :P
