WHY WET WEATHER IS A GOAT’S WORST NIGHTMARE
Unlike sheep, a goat’s coat is not waterproof. Cold rain and muddy ground don't just make them miserable—they lead to severe, painful foot infections, constant stress, and costly emergency vet bills.
​
Summer in our paddocks is wonderful, but winter weather is brutal. Last year, due to a severe lack of indoor space, we were forced to turn away over 35 rescue goats with nowhere else to go.
​
We never want to say no to an animal in need again—but we urgently need a proper shelter before the cold, wet weather sets in.
