As long as the attitude is gone too, I am just fine with it!! I think the change in the weather with the blizzard and all really messed him up. He is driving me crazy this week!

On top of being grouchy, he has a sore on the end of his tail. (I may or may not be responsible for it

) It is trying to heal, but he keeps biting at it. When I tell him to stop it, he barks and growls at me! It scares me that he is that smart! We are also having the ultimate war over the comforter on the couch. I.will.not.let.him.win!

Again, while you are here and so knowledgeable, what do you know about Nigerian Dwarf goats?

ooooh what an ole coot he's being! is his tail hurt from wacking and wagging it so much out of happiness?? or is it from someone smacking the door on it! LOL

How did you know?

Who's Thunder? The dog? You can ship him into Tampa or Orlando. Or you could just come with him.

ETA: Just expect him to be missing boy parts when you get him back.

Umm, that I'm picking mine up this weekend.

Ok, just kidding. What do you want to know? Brief summary - small, big attitudes (pushy, but in a "give me treats" sort of way), produce a good amount of milk for their size, don't eat nearly as much as my Nubians.

Umm when I was back in college my Bio teacher, who was a good friend, came in so distraught one day. i asked what was wrong and he said he has to take dog to vet to get 6 inches of her tail cut off because he thought she had come inside all the way and he slammed the door shut-on her tail! poor baby:-( is that really what happened? Ive nugged my dogs hiney in the door a few times to move him in

Didn't you have a job interview a while back? How easy is it in that area to find a job like that?

Yes, called last week and they said they were still interviewing people. Normally it's not that hard to find a job here, but with the economy the way it is there are too many people already looking for work and not a lot of places hiring.

I've had to amputate a few tails from that. One lady brought the end of the tail (the skin that had come off) in a bag and asked if we could reattach it.

Btw, I am surrounded by idiots today. Yes, it is normal, but it certainly must be the weather because they are driving me crazy today too!

And yes, I am in a good mood. Much better now that my phone is on do not disturb. I will be even better when this ugly slumped palm tree looking thing is sitting out in the middle of the sidewalk or street. Yes, it has been one of those days! You just can't fix stupid!

I wondered about that, but was too lazy to go back and see what kind you had said. I am only familiar with boers and pygmys. I found this http://kansascity.craigslist.org/grd/2187971676.html and wondered if he would make a good companion for Jasper. (wethered of course)

We have one of those screen doors that just slam shut, like the old farm ones. Sometimes he doesn't get all the way in and I don't catch it in time. It is a cut probably about half an inch long and quarter (?) inch wide. Every time it gets almost healed he starts biting it again. All I say is "don't do that" and he turns on me, barking and growling. He knows what I am saying!!
