A couple of years ago we heard about a goat that was being neglected and all but abandoned by his owner.
Sight unseen we said we would take him.
The only goats we had at the time were pygmy goats which are small. I went in my truck to pick up the goat and must say I was rather intimidated by his size, and by the size of his horns!
He was very thin and had been left in a barn that had no food, muddy water and muck up to his knees.
With the help the neighbor, who was the person responsible for getting the word out about 'Arnie' we got him in the truck.
For the safety of our selves and the other goats we had Arnie's horns surgically removed. He was nervous and slightly aggressive for a while but now he is the most loving of all our goats.
He has put on the weight that he needed and he is happy.

This picture shows his size. He towers above Princess, one of our grey hounds
