Hello Nanno and All
I am putting this experience in the "Truck Chasing Goats" post area.
As most of you know, my Bad Boy's rule the woods and turf around BC1.
They free range and have worked out a "Truce" with the neighbors dogs.
Even made some "Trust" bonds with the old GS, the neighbors have.
She I think is having LGD instincts coming to action.
The boys are letting her get close to them and she is sitting in a "Alert over watch" manner not looking at the boys as a meal.
That means I have 2 LGD's for 2 goats My Lab "Max" and now Shasha.
Seams we attract good animals.
Moving on:
Had "Human" Visitors to Camp, a friend that has met the goat boys and a friend of his looking at some down logs we have for fire wood.
The "New" Guy made the mistake of settling down on the Goat's bench.
Normal spot that Sam has claimed as his "Perch" and now a strange person is sitting in "HIS" spot.
Sam Jumped up and inspected this New person, chewed on his shirt ,licked his ear, Pawed at him to make him move down enough so Sam could lay down in "His" normal spot. Bad goat
He moved and Sam snuggled down and started getting Scratched by New Person.
Pete in the mean time was watching what was going on and started sneaking up to check things out.
Pete got a scratch or two and decided maybe this "New" guy was OK.
Turned around, settled down and relaxed into "normal" hang around the camp mode.
So even though the boy's were a bit cautious, of the new guy they were willing to allow a new person into the camp and respect him. No treats involved except a good scratch and pet. Social Goats???
