Aardwolf Alpacas is a full time, full service alpaca ranch with 35
acres, four barns, and totally fenced pastures, We have the
space
and facilities for continued growth which will allow us to
provide service that exceeds the expectations of
our
customers
in
a fun, professional manner.
We purchased our first
Alpacas
in
October 2005 - Aardwolf Alpacas was born. With many tough
lessons
and a whole lot of fun, we've grown to 40 animals
and looking forward to 23 new babies (cria) in
2011.
Visit us regularly and watch us grow!
New in 2010, we have added a Bed & Breakfast for your
convenience. We also added Ranch Vacations, where you can work
"hands on" to learn about alpacas and enjoy the "Gateway to the
Rockies".
MIKE
Mike Moser grew up in Ogden, Utah, where he married and raised 5
children. After getting a degree in manufacturing engineering and an
MBA,
his pursuits moved him to New Mexico where he met Phyllis and
"discovered" alpacas. Mike is a full time Alpaca
Rancher
that does all the "hands on" work and caring for the alpacas.
When time allows, he does small
contractor jobs, remodeling and building additions on houses. He loves
the
hours and can go fishing when the weather is nice or ski when the
powder is calling. A recent passion for Mike and Phyllis is Send
Out Cards (www.sendarealcard.com). We use it market our alpacas,
stay in contact with family, friends, and clients, and touch someone
life. It's some thing we all have a need for and can use!!
PHYLLIS
Phyllis Swenson grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Through the years
she has enjoyed two careers, as an Architect and a
Database Software Developer (her true passion). She has two teenage
girls in
Albuquerque, where she spends a week a month. She recently reorganized
her career to do the software support, on a full time basis, from the
ranch,
support Mike's construction work with her Architecture, develop alpaca
websites and marketing leads, watch for new cria (babies),
and
work hands-on with the alpacas. Whew, Mike gets the easy end
of this partnership!!

Africa. Aard means "of the earth", wolf needs no
explanation. Click this link to the photos
