| Donna from OH shearer was triston on 6/14/2024 |
| My wife and I are extremely pleased with the level of service we received but more importantly the level of professionalism of Triston and Josh. Both were very personable and polite from the moment they entered the barn to the time they left. They were organized and made quick work of shearing our 3 Alpacas. They even made sure the area was clean when they were done. I look forward to working with this crew again next season. All the Best, Scott & Donna Miller Peartree Farm Chesterland, Ohio |

| Tristan and Josh were absolutely fantastic. I could not have asked for better service. They were quick, thorough and paid attention to detail. While Tristan did have to wrestle the 2 sheep a little, he never once put himself in a position where he could injure an animal. I really hope I can get Tristan next year when I schedule. These guys are the epitome of customer service. Thank you guys for everything. |

I certainly appreciate that as I know many of you do. Have a great year boys and be careful out there. Will be booking next year again with you. Terri Fountain (Fountains Pacadamnies) |
| Deb from KY shearer was sardis on 5/4/2024 |
| Sardis and his team were great this year. I asked if they could slow down the pace a little so I could better keep up and they gladly did so. I also introduced a new blanket collection method and Sardis gave me productive feedback that the new method helped him do a quicker and better job. Animals were a little damp from rain, but Sardis didn't mind. He even helped me catch and corral animals so they were easy to handle. Thanks for a great shearing event. |
| Deborah from KY shearer was sardis on 5/2/2024 |
| Sardis and his team give their utmost care and concern for the well being of our alpacas. The alpacas here at Black Watch are well taken care of and receive the best shearing. It is great to watch how each team member takes special care with each alpaca. Watching them calming each one during the whole process is special. Happy to hav e Sardis and his team here at Black Watch!!! |

| Kay from NE shearer was micah on 5/25/2023 |
| We are again extremely pleased with Micah and his crew – Asher, Andrew, and Tristan! We’ve had animals for over twenty years, and this was by far the most efficient and smooth shearing experience we have had in a number of years, evidence of the skill, efficiency, and professionalism of this crew! Micah’s team perfectly balanced efficiency with care and attention to detail for each animal, which we were so appreciative of given our aging herd and very pregnant females! The crew put up with our requests for pre-shearing pictures, show cuts on almost every fleece, and didn’t miss shots, toes, or teeth on anyone. So impressed by this group and already looking forward to having them back next year. Thank you – Micah, Asher, Andrew, and Tristan – the animals are loving their haircuts! |
| Lucy from MI shearer was noah on 5/24/2023 |

| Barbara from NJ shearer was noah on 5/4/2023 |

| Deborah from KY shearer was sardis on 5/4/2023 |
| Sardis and his team go up and above to create a calm and professional environment for our alpacas. It is a pleasure to have the team on our farm. We thank them and as always look forward to next year. The alpacas look great! |
| Sonia from TN shearer was sardis on 5/1/2023 |
| We want to say Thank You to Sardis and his crew. We are only into our second year with Alpacas and did not have a good experience with a shearer we used last year. Sardis and his crew showed up and got right to work setting up while Sardis (knowing we were still new to this) took the time to introduce his associates and give us a rundown of their process. He took the time to explain what he was doing and why at each step, what we could use the different fleece for(1st, 2nd and thirds). The animals were treated carefully and only down for a minimal amount of time. They work very effeciently and carefully.We can't thank them enough. Rachel was great to deal with on the phone while setting our appointment as first time clients, always took the time to answer any questions and schedule us. Thank you all, Sonia and Mike |
| Connie from TN shearer was sardis on 4/29/2023 |
| Sardis and his crew take alot of pride in their work. They worked well together and assisted Sardis with moving our llamas to get a great shearing. We are grateful to have had Sadie’s crew three times . Our llamas are very happy when they leave. Thank you., The McMillan’s |
| Suzie from TN shearer was sardis on 4/29/2023 |
| Always a pleasure to have Sardis and crew. So respectful of alpacas, property and us |
| JoAnn from OH shearer was john on 4/29/2023 |
| This is our first year and we believe that we had the "best" team - John's team. The guys are professional, kind and pay attention to the needs of the owner and the alpacas!! We think John's team should win because he is celebrating his 20th year shearing alpacas. Michael and JoAnn White |
| Arleen from WV shearer was noah on 4/27/2023 |
| Perfection. We're slowing down after 16 years in the business and after having peaked at 27 alpacas everyone was glad to come, we are now down to 4 alpacas; one male with many health issues, two girls getting up there in years and one girl still hot to trot if you understand. The care Noah and Destin showed the alpacas was impeccable but what stood out for us was their ability to listen to our history and what was needed to keep us on track as we slowly work an exit plan brokenheartedly as it may be toward retirement. The dedication to be there for us as our herd diminishes with laughs and light hearts. Rachel cannot be left out, with her communication skills going a long way when things don't always go as planned. We will recommend Noah,Destin, and all at Shearing Alpacas above any of what might be considered their competition of which after years of experience there doesn't seem to be much. God bless those that care for each alpaca and not just what you have to offer them when you're herd is at its peak. Sincerely, Arleen and Allen McInarnay of Double "A" Ranch |
| Jennifer from IN shearer was micah on 4/27/2023 |
| Micah's team was awesome as always!! They are very good at what they do and can tell they support each other in their work. This is very impressive considering they spend 24/7 with each other traveling to farms and working together. |
| Lori from TN shearer was noah on 4/24/2023 |
| Noah and Dustin were wonderful! I am new raising alpacas and this was my first experience. I'd heard stories of the stressed alpacas and the mess. Bio Shearing was recommended by Foster Trails Alpaca Farm. These two sheared my very pregnant lady (due in 2 weeks) with gentle care so as to keep her calm. My five ladies were done in less than 90 minutes-set up to clean-up! They also helped me understand body scoring. In fact Noah has so much experience that he was able to accurately tell how old each of my girls are. I'll schedule again next spring when I will have new crias to add to my herd. Thank you Rachel for your help and scheduling and Noah and Dustin for the care and skill you gave me and my herd. Lori Tanner Pikeville TN |

| Beverly from TX shearer was noah on 4/8/2023 |
| Just wanted to tell you it was the calmest, best shearing ever. Noah is incredible. They were such a team. Our alpacas were so calm. We’ve never had a day like yesterday. And, all of the others were good. You can tell he worked with John because it reminded me of when I met John 8 years ago. I only have one question. What is his partners name. He’s been here the last several years and I keep forgetting it. He’s wonderful, too. Thanks again. |
| Jennifer from TX shearer was micah on 4/5/2023 |
| Micah & crew are the best! Y’all have been taking care of our animals for years and we consider your services provided as a blessing! Thank you! |
| Sheri from TX shearer was sardis on 4/3/2023 |

| Anita from NC shearer was noah on 3/29/2023 |
