After being around goats for the majority of my life, I have come to the conclusion that they are quite possibly the most amusing and enjoyable animals to have. They each have their own unique personality, whether it be grumpy, annoying, quiet, wild, etc., and they are—though it may be a little-known fact—very affectionate, and often think they are lap goats even when they weigh 70 pounds. This is an account of what I have learned from raising Nigerian Dwarf goats for the past twelve or so years.
