My goat has a poking problem

[HunterImagery]

That's a very interesting story, HunterImagery! We've spent a lot of time "loving up" or old, cranky wether, Cuzco when he's been aggressive but it has never done any good. Cuzco has never been aggressive with his horn, but he growls and body-blocks and puts up his hackles. Loving him up has never worked, but to be fair, neither has anything else we've ever tried (except taking the other goats away), so at this point we just manage him. He's too old to be much danger to anyone by now anyway, so we let him feel tough.  

 Good to hear I'm not the only one who can't give up on a very lovable but cranky goat.  Honestly, for all I know it was something else that turned him around that I'm not realizing.   Like I said in another thread he's gone from being a huge pain in the butt to an (almost) angel in the last month or so.
