A fence? You need more than a fence for a goat. You need a steel fortress like a prison. A goat will bust through a fence quicker than you can say "Laissez les bons temps rouler". Then you would surely be in the chicken house - not dog house.

This is true!
That is yet another good thing about sheep. You can keep them contained with 3-4 strands of electric fence. You biggest expense there would be the fence charger and t-posts. The wire is relatively cheap.
I had a goat named Popcorn when I was little. One day old popcorn escaped and we found him on the hood of my moms Cadillac
. Needless to say, popcorn was a goner after that one.
Not to mention most goats have horns which CONSTANTLY get stuck in the fencing. Talk about a real pain in the you know what! They are the cutest little babies, but not worth all the hassle to me!
