My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This little man is ready for his forever home! Dwight is a black and white Pygmy goat who enjoys the company of both animals and humans alike. He would do best living in a home with other goat friends where he could spend his time eating hay and being doted upon by his family. While at the Ranch, we noticed that Dwight had an occasional limp in his front left leg. After being seen by the vet multiple times to rule out as much as we could, the vet deducted that he has poor flexion in a joint in his front left leg, causing occasional minor pain. As he grows older, he may need medication to aid in any pain felt due to this diagnosis, but at this time, Dwight is living medication-free in a paddock with other goats and seems to be doing fine!

Dwight loves being scratched behind his ears by staff when we clean his enclosure, but not as much as he loves munching on goat treats! He is the first goat to approach visitors on open house days and absolutely loves any and all attention he can get from humans. Dwight would make a great addition to anyone`s family and animal herd. And did we mention he`s harness trained?!
