Listen to Marc Warnke, "The Goat Guy" at Packgoats.com tell us why you shouldn’t play with your goats and how to correct a young goat that thinks he can use his head on you. As our goats get older, these goats are 7 or 8 months and starting to get bigger. The pecking order is getting really aggressive. It is a critical time to correct right now. Always communicate with the goat's body, not their head, so they know that aggression is not ok. Let them know with a firm NO when they start to use their horns to gesture. They need to know that you do not engage this way. Marc shares that he made a mistake early in his pack goating career. That he played and ran around with his goats in their pen. Do not engage with them playing, the goats get confused and can't distinguish play with one another. Heavily discourage you from ever really playing with your goats. They just can't distinguish, communicating to play with us as they play with one another. To keep your goats from becoming aggressive.
Heavily advise, don't play. Heavily advise arresting this sort of behavior, pushing to the side and loving them on the side or from behind.
At packgoats.com our mission is to become a leading resource on all things for owning your goats. In addition, help you feel confident about the information and be successful in caring for your goats.

Just like dogs, goats need to know who the top boss is. If you play with them, they think you're one of them, on the same level with them. I grew up with goats and ended up getting smashed around by horns a good many times because they didn't know I was the top dog. I was just a lowley goat.

@mossybishhh 3 года назад

Just like he said in the video, there's two parts to play, with the second part because horns/head smashing. If you do the first part (chasing, jumping), they expect the second part. They play with aggression.

@bobhotchkiss2438 3 года назад

Years ago I had huge Kensing Spanish buck turn aggressive. After he took me off my feet like a bowling pin a few times, I realized that the wasn't trying to hurt me, he was just incredibly bored. This is how I fixed him: STEP 1 I taught him that I would scratch wherever he scratched with his horns, if he would come to me when called by name. STEP 2 I taught him that my hands could scratch the corona band of his horns if I wanted to - up in the back where he couldn't reach in any way. STEP 3 I taught him I wouldn't scratch behind his horns unless he put his front feet on top of an object such as a board - log - or plastic tub. I did that by standing on the opposite side and calling him by name, and scratching just as soon as his feet were on the object. I used the verbal command, "Get up on the log". STEP 4 I taught him I would stop scratching any time either of his front feet came off the object. STEP 5 - I taught him that the scratching was over when I said, "Go Eat". This was what I called the "Pancho tax". Whenever I entered the pasture, I was expected to pay the Pancho tax, and he was expected to keep his horns to himself. It worked great, I just substituted something more enjoyable for the aggressive behavior. It got to where he would run for the log just as soon as I came through the gate.

Another good, informative video. My dog says thank you too. We rescued a pup that had been abused by being held down on the ground by her throat by a little kid. She's very intelligent (probably more so than we are) and yet has been super anxious and reactive when we try to move her away from us by her collar. I could go on, we've tried everything you can think of the dog trainers recommended. Her way of getting attention was mouthing with teeth and she's a big dog. You could see the anxiety and stress build instantly in her every freaking night. When we were ready to relax and just chill for the evening she got stressed. She wanted to know what was expected of her and we were struggling for months to let her know what was right or wrong. Flipping her wasn't an option. Just kidding. We turned our bodies fully away from her until she got her feet on the floor and stopped with the mouth stuff. We pulled her against us against our legs while we sat and rubbed her side and back.. She's now calm and we're adding head rubs slowly as we go. I know this is a goat forum and you've been great with the advice on my goats but wow, this applies to reactive dogs too lol

Interesting about your dog, "Terri L". Guess we have to find out what they are thinking, and interact accordingly. I can see how similar the understanding of goat behaviour is. The Goat Guy certainly knows what he's doing . Well done to persevere. Have you seen Caesar the dog trainer on t.v.? He gets good results with applied dog psychology. Best Wishes from England.xx

@Adam.Rushing 3 года назад

Terri L - You are absolutely correct. I was a dog trainer for around 15 years, specializing in aggression rehab. There are a LOT of similarities between dogs and horses as far as the training goes, and now I guess goats apparently too :) Behavioral Modification is very difficult in many cases, especially when the dog never learned how to be a dog with humans. Glad to hear of your success!

@ClareAndAlec 3 года назад

Story time: We had some nubians and an alpine growing up. The oldest doe (Lacy) we purchased at one year old and we got her with a couple of other unrelated doe kids (Kerry and Eliza the alpine). The Lacy was the only one we ever successfully bred and she had two kids, Carver Brown (who was ultimately whethered) and Helen. So, Lacy - the only one we didn't raise for the first year of her life - was easily the meanest goat we had. She was always trying to hurt people with her head. She was very heady in general but the only person she liked was my father so she would rub her head lovingly on him and then try to nail anyone else. I didn't know better than to touch their heads but none of the others ever tried to hurt anyone. Actually, Kerry and Carver Brown would regularly step in between Lacy when she tried to attack me. They would take the hit themselves and then start head butting with her. Often they would work together to hold her off me. So yeah, I'm convinced that some goats can tell the difference between playing and fighting. Maybe Lacy couldn't. Perhaps that was her problem but Kerry and Carver Brown were definitely keenly aware of her intentions.

@Masport_Goat 3 года назад

Hi Mark, One of the first things I teach my goats (apart from their name) is the word 'No'. Ive found that I can teach this at any age, even those semi-wild rescues that have had minimal human direct contact. Recently I've taken on a 4yr old Alpine, who is used to playing with his owner, however, I've found that the play can easily get out of control with humans (to the aggression stage) displaying not only the posturing but also the horn contact like when fighting another goat. I believe he is confused about play with humans and its a bit of a process teaching him that isnt the way you interact with us. I have been handling his head (head scratches etc) and each time I do this he does think it leads to play time again. So, given your video, I believe youre onto something there and I'll stop touching his head and focus on his back and rump. He does love rumpy scratches (like most of them do) and so that is my new game plan. He is also learning the verbal 'no' as well which I believe is the most useful command for them to learn. In my teachings 'no' is also coupled with the freeze action/stop dont move. My original goat Masport has been saved from many a situation by knowing 'no' equals freeze. Thanks again for your insight and broadening my knowledge too. Regards Caro & Masport (in NZ) :-)

Behaviors that are a minor nuisance with disbudded goats are really problematic with the horned goats. I have a big bruise on my belly from being clipped by a buck whose horns spiral out to the side. Another behavior I discourage is allowing babies to jump on your back - the whole goat yoga thing 😱 - what’s cute with a baby is not fun with a 80+ pound adult goat (I don’t actually find it fun with babies myself). Also standing back when I open the gate, not rushing out. I often buy goats and have to train that bad habit out of them.

I didn't want to play with my buck because he was my guy but my friends wanted him to be this loveable character so they would try and play with him and they all got head butted all the time and I never did and he would only walk with me not anyone else and it was only because everyone else played with him. Goats are about the most mature natured animal you can interact with.

Play/Aggression is common in most animals. Similar types of aggression is present in all but a few mammals, and as you mentioned, establishes pecking order.

Yep baby horses are the same, never play with them. Also, I have never let kittens play bite or scratch, they end up being adult cats that never even consider scratching or biting, makes every day things like brushing their teeth, clipping nails and veterinary care that much easier.

What am I even doing here...watching goat videos

@LyndseyMacPherson 2 года назад

Great point. I've not had goats, but trying to learn all I can about them. This is actually true with a lot of other domestic animals. The more you play or rough-house with them, the more prone they are to being physically aggressive.

My sheep breeding experience tells me the same. You avoid hand feeding rams or even giving them rubs, but sheep dont have horns mostly and mostly are more timid so hand feeding them and giving them back rub can make them much more relaxed and friendly to work with. Goats have more intelligence and with training (if you go in open pastures with lot of bushes) you can train them as a group or individually to come back to you for some treat or form a group and go back. They can learn their names unlike sheep.
