HHSF Tiburon's Peruvian TIZO Suri

The judges call him "the perfect Suri alpaca!" At one of his first shows, the judge invited the spectators to come over to lift his fleece and touch and look at Tizo, since he was "what a Suri is supposed to look like". Tizo has impressed every judge in whose ring he has ever shown. Not only because of his perfect conformation and large, lustrous locks but because of his well-behaved presence in the ring.
