Anyone who has worked training horses for years has been mad enough to kick them if horses weren’t so darn tall. If not, they are lying.

And goats. I remember the time I went down to the barn on a Saturday morning to collect eggs in my pajamas. While bent over a curious billy goat came up behind me, stuck his horned head between my legs, which startled me, which startled him so that he lifted his head with a jerk. Next thing I know I'm riding a stupid unhappy goat, which quickly resulted in the both of us toppling over sideways into some mud.

When I got back to the house I was like, "Don't ask. Don't even ask."

LOL...

I had a big Nubian dairy Goat that I never dehorned.

She would hit you from behind and sent you flying.

When she ate all my blueberry bushes and then danced on my car, she was GONE.

We had three horses, Dad’s, my brother’s, and mine. We went on a ride with a friend of my Dad’s who rode his horse. Four of us, out in the country. We stopped at a local gas station, as the friend wanted to buy a pack of cigarettes. While he was inside, somehow my horse got her rear leg tangled up in a gas pump hose. She started bucking, and I’m hanging on for dear life. She finally got free, I didn’t fall off, but she actually knocked the gas pump off its stand. My Dad had to buy the owner a new pump.

Dad hated that horse, and she hated him back. Once, after a ride, Dad had his saddle hanging from a rope by the saddle horn. She backed up against it and just unloaded the biggest mess of horse crap I ever saw all over it.

He was cussing up a blue streak, calling her everything he could think of, and we were laughing so hard we couldn’t stand up.
