Toggenburgs

[Nanno]

One of John Mionczynski's best packgoats was a Togg. He was small but super strong. I forget his name (was it Menu maybe?), but he carried 90 lbs. up a glacier. John had a single large piece of equipment that was around 40 lbs. and couldn't be broken down, so he had to balance it out on the other side to keep the saddle even. All told with the saddle and everything that little Togg was hefting 90 or more lbs. up the mountain!

I've always noticed that Toggs tend to have the nicest feet and legs of any of the dairy breeds. They're not big goats, but they are very stout. I hear they can have somewhat standoffish personalities though.
