It may be an Alpaca
They are regarded as having some of the softest wool in the world but few know how to process it into yarn.

I think it's an alpaca; close relative of the llama, but famous for its wool. Never seen a llama with fuzzy shins...

I see the Saj beat me to it.

| I think the others may be right in saying it's an alpaca. Alpacas are really cute and rather small, so they might appear baby-ish :) And yes, they do have the little fuzzy legwarmer things and the fuzzy long hair on their heads :) |

Greetings,
I agree, they look like alpaca's, and as for the "leg warmers" the overall coat of the animal STRONGLY resembles they way a sheep looks after its been sheared for the summer, so considering others have mentioned the quality of the critters coat, I'd suggest that is what has happened to these two...

| it's not a poodle, you shave them for their wool not for looks. Thus, the goal is to shave them quickly (track marks be damned).... ;) |

| This happens to be the hairy northern land-cod seen after it had shed its spawning fur. Often mistaken by novices for a South American Alpaca , it is rarely seen in this glory and is certainly a prize to be relished by those who chance a rare glimpse of the elusive aquatic creature. ;-) |
