	Welcome to our New Website
	Welcome to our brand new Love Them Alpacas website. Our new website allows us to easily have up-to-the-minute accuracy with regards to the staus of our herd. The search functionality on our animals page allows our viewers to select exactly the type of animal they're searching for. Once an animal is found all the necessary information required to "pre-qualify" an animal is logically presented in a simple "one-view" form. All of the animals listed in our On-line herd have the capacity to be presented with 4 generations of pedigree allowing viewers to readily assess lineage quality and value beyond just the dam and sire. Beyond the standard body shot pictures typically found on most alpaca sites, we can now include head, teeth, rear body shots and more in all of our animal listings, giving viewers greater understanding of the animals at hand. These are only a few of the great new features of our new site. We welcome you to have a look around, take a surf through our herd and feel free to e-mail or call us with your questions or comments. Sincerely: Robin and Richard.
