Those teeth need a bit of trimming, although they may also be protruding out at an angle more than they should too. See second pic here of trimmed teeth:

Shearers should provide extra services, such as checking of teeth, feet, tails, etc.

The one we use at the llama park even gives vaccinations (we provide the syringes/drugs).

He only does camelids though.

Your vet should be able to provide contacts for shearers that can do teeth.

Uau. He looks very cute and intelligent but how does he manage to hold the tools and the syringes and all that?

I already have the coat and I'll close the door on the way out. :D

When I first glanced at the top picture it reminded me of a Raving Rabbid for some reason (and I don't even play the games).

Light blue eyes can mean the animal is deaf:

There's a llama (Sinbad) at Ashdown who has one blue eye, but he doesn't appear to be deaf. I hoped they'd name him Bowie. :wink:

That's because Nicholas the llama at Ashdown Forest Llama Park is now the brand icon of Llama Snacks:

http://www.llamasnacks.com/
(available from Tesco)

and the marketing company of the snacks firm has had him predicting results of football matches since the FA Cup. 8)

He's now doing the England matches in Euro 2012:
