Don't turn your nose up at preloved, (some people do) if you're careful there is good stuff on there.  :)

Thank you for all these links!
No sheep, my neighbour does, he's met the sheep but ignored them.
Sorry to hear your news
Shame you are so far away
I have a couple of  last years weathers or even  Alpine X Boer cross girls  i would let go to good home

The goats on facebook are close by

If you head towards me, turn left to go past colliston school and I think they are at bottom of that road at kimblethmont. Worth a look! Didn't even know there was a goat person down there
pygmy goats, gsd, border collie, scots dumpys, cochins, araucanas, shetland ducks and geese,  marrans, and pea fowl in a pear tree.

I would look at any, and have been looking at preloved.
 but did have a bad experience with preloved and a whole days drive to Lancashire and back in 2014 so don't think I'd be able to convince OH to go so far again! Thank you for the offer though Mart6!

Many thanks to Talana - Dash is very happy here!  :thumbsup:
He has been enjoying his walks out with Broadsword, gets on fine with my son and is putting up with the dog as well. Doesn't like traffic, so need to work on this.

He's far more goaty than mine - jumps and runs about more. They managed about 3 hours grazing in the sun yesterday afternoon and I was so pleased that Dash showed Broadsword that he can eat, and doesn't have to stand by the gate calling me the whole time  ;D

He drinks tonnes! Seriously, must drink about 3 times more! But very happy x

Here's dash in his new outfit!
Don't worry, he won't be using this patched together harness for any pulling work, it's just to get them used to the feel of it and to used to going as a pair together (don't have a good photo of Broardsword, he follows me too closely, so I just have shots of his massive face!)

And Talana, I forgot to say, my in laws did know your relatives and ask me to send them their regards!

I hope he's going to get a proper tartan one, like his collar!  ;)

Fab! hes's settled so quickly.
 I once had one of my previous males Crunchie use a large dog harness and pulled my children's sledge.
