WRSR Sweet Dreams by Stingray

Perfect compact proportions on a frame with heavy bone makes this little girl pleasing to the eye, but in a smaller size. Karina weighed in at only 37 lbs at 1 year old when she arrived at our farm, but put on over 60 lbs in 9 months. Her fleece is beautifully soft and slick, with high luster and independent locking. To top it off, she has a great, easy-going personality and produced a 2.3 lb blanket from that tiny frame of only 42 lbs when she was shorn! Karina is by our WRSR Accoyo Razor, one of our top producers of density and high luster. Razor has the disposition and natural showy presence that we all covet in our breeding programs. His crias are farm favorites, as they are gentle, friendly, and curious. His crias perform well in the show ring in all classes, from the largest halter show and fleece shows in the country, to winning the most difficult performance and obstacle courses. Razor is an all-around stud that passes on his high luster, and zig-zag wavy locking. His crias win fleece shows because of their fineness, uniformity, and fleece weight, as Razor annually shears at least 8 lbs of fiber even at age 12. He is a fiber machine! Razor has produced crias from dark to light. Karina's dam is AIA Moonshadow Pixie, a beautiful classy dark fawn female bred by retired breeder Virginia Lentz. Pixie was awarded a 1st Place in the 2015 MAPACA Jubilee Fleece Show for her fleece shorn at 5 years old in 2014. Judy Keske, Judge, comments were "Beautiful color and handle, especially for age." Karina began her show career in the Previously Shorn classes (3"-11" growth) for the 2015 shows. She was awarded Reserve Champion at the 2015 Carolina Alpaca Show, and won Reserve Champion in fleece at the 2015 MAPACA Jubilee, too! What a great showing with recognition of her fineness, luster, and density. Karina is now proven with the delivery of her 2016 female cria, Sweet Dreams. Sweet Dreams is by SBS Stingray and is a deep maroon with black points. She has an extremely fine fleece like her sire, and solid conformation and was sold. She has been bred to our appy herd sire Shasta Springs Fusion for a late April cria. She was ultrasounded positive for pregnancy on 6/12/17. Karina delivered her cria with much assistance on 4/29/18, a gorgeous grey/fawn appy female, "Memory". Karina prolasped her uterus twice and died 2 days later from infection and kidney failure. Such a loss of a beautiful and sweet female. We are very sad, but she left us with a phenomenal cria to remember her by, WRSR Karin's Memory by Fusion.
