Goat Therapy @ jollityFARM
Monday, June 3, 2019 at 10:08PM No, it's not goat yoga but does include fun times with goat kids, and you could stretch at the same time!
We are looking for volunteers who would like to spend some time (regular weekly shifts) visiting our goat kids and helping them to be socialized. As we leave goat kids with their dams for the first 6-8 weeks of life, they tend to be a bit human shy. It makes it easier in the future if the kids come to trust their human friends.
Goat therapy tasks may include:
- sitting in a deck chair and reading and simply allowing the goats to be curious and visit
- cuddling goat kids who want to curl up on your lap
- brushing goat kids and dams
- collecting brambles for the kids to nibble on
... eventually taking them for small walks when we are ready to leash train
*this opportunity is available to adults, responsible kids over 12 & younger kids accompanied by a parent (or adult relative)
