    :rofl: :lol: Gas I can't tell if you are being funny?:rofl: :lol:

    If you are being serious though, yes I have the means and shelter for them, but I cannot physically care for them (feeding, grooming, etc). I was hoping to get them in my pole barn tonight so the yotes dont get them til they can be rehomed or the sheriff can come get them. :smoke:

    Phew, sheriff just stopped. The "doberman" female unfortunately got stuck in a shed upside down !?! Anyway they freed her and kept her, male is nearby. Sheriff looking for owner or will take them in tonight. Either way they are safe from yotes.

    She mentioned the one might be a "show" goat fox9988 and she is convinced they have owners. PHEW!

    I am not sure, but I know they are safe. I would guess the sheriff took them, none of the locals knew of an owner. The sheriff seemed confident they had owners, so they will track them down eventually.

    Update, the goats were actually taken in by neighbors. Dear Husband has been seeing the goats on a property a few miles from us. They are not the owners, but offered to take them. I guess we misunderstood that they found THE owners but rather they were actually dumped, or abandoned, and found someone that agreed to BECOME owners.

    Neat deal :)

    For future reference. ...very often if an animal..livestock..is handled any amount they often respond well to a coffee can with a little grain in it and shake it to entice them. Once even led neighbor guys cattle back into his fence after an escape with a couple small rocks off the gravel road stuffed into a powerade bottle and used like a rattle. They didn't get a treat but all 30 followed like ducklings back into the gate.

    For future reference. ...very often if a husband..companion..is fed any amount they often respond well to the smell of bacon with a little beef cooked along with it to entice them. Once even led a whole bunch of people who were throwing horse shoes and drinking beer from the pits to the picnic table and grill. They all got a treat and all followed like ravenous hyenas.
