Do you have a house goat? Might you like to train a goat for goat agility? To pull a cart or tote a pack? Or maybe develop goat freestyle events like the freestyle classes at horse shows? Do your goats participate in animal-assisted therapy programs? Or do you simply have goats that are certifiably

Whatever, NotYourUsualGoatList is the perfect place for not your usual goat owners to gather and talk goat. And people who don't have goats but think they'd like to get some are welcome here too. Heck, we'll even let you talk about your special pet sheep (since this list is being formed because some folks at my HFSheep list think too many of my posts address goats)!

Everyone is welcome with one caveat: we're all expected to behave nicely at NotYourUsualGoatList. We can agree to disagree but strong disagreements must be taken off-list. No name-calling, no nannyberry flinging, no undue unpleasantness please. :o)

Apart from that, y'all come!
