We
bought Missy to be a companion for our pony, Fritz. Fritz's horse
friend had died very tragically in front of him, and he was now alone in
the field. We went to a goat breeder to look at her older goats. Then we
saw Missy. She was much smaller than the other goats in her pasture and
they were pushing her away from the food. But she was patient and soon
was able to sneak in. We brought her home and kept her in a stall for a
week. We weren't sure how Fritz would react. When we finally let her out
she ran straight to Fritz and they have been inseparable ever since. In
this picture she is playing Queen of the Mountain on an old barn foundation.
Our dog, Buckeye, barks at her all the time. She has begun to taunt the
dog now. Rising up on her rear legs and coming down at the dog like a
ram would. She and Fritz also tease the dog. Missy will get the dog up
to the fence and Fritz will stick his muzzle through the fence and bite
the dog on the butt. She and Fritz are fast friends, as well as partners
in mischief. Missy is very special to him - and to all of us.
