The Alcapa met residents at the Weymouth care home
TWO friendly alpacas made a surprise visit to a nursing home much to the delight of residents.
Ollie and Hurry from Alpaca Adventure in Dorset, are alpacas, the animals are native to South America and are known for the softness and quality of their wool.
The pair visited residents at Weymouth Care Home earlier this week to meet the staff and residents.
The duo visited residents at their bedsides and in the home's lounge and merrily trotted around making new friends.
Alpacas eat grass and hay and are known for their calm and friendly nature.
Weymouth Care Home is currently home to 33 residents, who were delighted with the visit.
