A friend who is always there waiting
Have you ever had a goat give you the evil eye? I wasn’t sure whether this one was nearsighted or if there was spinach between my teeth.
Goats aren’t my favorite people, although they are the companions of choice for expensive race horses. Arlington International Race Track near Chicago once reported nearly 60 goats in residence. They’ve tried pot-bellied pigs to be racing mascots, but the horses seem to prefer the goats, hands–err, hooves down.
I go about looking at horses and cattle.
They eat grass, make love, work when they have to, bear their young. I am sick with envy of them.

Goats as companion animals, how ’bout that?!
