Sponsor Jacob.

Jacob is a British Saanen type goat and one of our largest goats. He’s quite shy towards people but enjoys the company of his best friend and stable neighbour Gary.
Jacob was brought into the sanctuary in April 2013 having been found wandering on a main road at night. Jacob was not very old at the time but has grown well since and now is one of the biggest goats we have. He has a calm and gentle nature but is slightly wary of people but of late has become more trusting. Jacob spends most of his time with his friend Gary and they both enjoy good natured sparring sessions together.

Sponsor Wallace.

Wallace is one of the most popular and friendly of all our goats, he will often be seen close to the fence enjoying the attention from visitors to the sanctuary. Wallace was the dominant goat of the heard but now his younger rival Edward has taken over.
Wallace has been with us at the sanctuary since 2013. He had been found roaming loose on a busy road. Wallace is a British Toggenburg type goat and in his younger days was very active. After his arrival we had to heighten all the fences of the pen and his stable walls as he was regularly leaping out of them. He is much calmer these days though. You may notice Wallace’s horns have not formed properly (likely due to a botched attempt to remove them at a young age) one grows backwards and needs regular trimming to avoid it growing into his head.

Sponsor Yorick.

Yorick joined us in December 2019 after he was found abandoned on waste ground. He is very small even for a pygmy goat and only stands 2 feet tall. He has a big spirit though and will not back down even to our biggest goats. He is usually full of energy and often charges around the pen chasing all the others most of who are twice his size. Yorick is still quite timid of people after his time living feral, and although he will take food from your hand he will rarely stand still to be stroked.

Sponsor Ringo.

Ringo is one of our most distinctive goats and can’t be mistaken for anyone else. He is very bright and always full of mischief.
Ringo arrived at the sanctuary in 2019 and settled in right away. He had a number of previous homes so we know little about him. He is very friendly but is a bit of a rebel, taking any chance he can find to escape and raid the food bin!
