'Seeing Eye' Llamas

[Darkzone 0]

True conversation between my mother and I in car...

Mom: "Did you see on the news the other day, they're going to use trained llamas as guide dogs for the blind"

Me: "Guide dogs?!"

Mom: "Yes, guide dogs. They've trained them up 'cos there's a shortage of proper dogs suitable for the job."

Me: "Wow, that's amazing, but llamas are like, quite big and they spit at people."

Mom: "I know, but apparently they're quite intelligent apart from the spitting and all that..."

Me: "The harnesses must be huge."

Mom: "I think the blind people would be able to ride them places."

Me: "Whatever next...are you sure they're training them as guide dogs?"

Mom: "......actually...thinking about it...no...I think it was sheep dogs."

Me: "Mom, get out of the car, please."

Far away is close at hand in images of elsewhere.
