My Life Graph


My favorite event that happened so far in my life is when I got my goats Amy and Domo. They were Pygmy goats that I got the summer of 4th grade. We used to let them out and they would run around the house eating everything! We also would bring them inside with us while we watched t.v. and they would just fall asleep on you. They were really cute, fun, and fat! Amy and Domo only stood about a foot 1/2 tall. If they were to grow up they would of been as wide as they were tall. My dad built a little house for them that was really big for two little goats. Most the time they didn't spend in the goat pen though. We nicknamed Amy Houdini because she kept escaping from the pen so we had to line the whole bottom of the fence with logs, and she still got out! And they weren't little logs. They also ran away one time to the neighbors. I just thought they were in the backyard, but i guess not because just then our neighbor comes up the driveway with Amy and Domo on a rope. We had just been over at the neighbors so i think they followed us. If you had food in your hand' they would follow you around all day. They were white with a back stripe on their backs. Domo was a little bigger than Amy and he had horns. Amy was my goat and Domo was Charleys goat. We named him Domo from that song Domo Ari Gotto Mr. Roboto. Ari Gotto was Domo's middle name and Mr. Roboto was Domo's last name.

Lucky you get goats as pets. If i had a goat I would name it vacuum because they eat everything. Do you still have them? If so how old are they? Sounds like goats are fun pets.

It sounds like you had a lot of fun with your goats. Thats a good nickname for Amy. Can you teach the goats any tricks like sit,stay, and roll over. That's funny that the goats would eat anything. I remember a goat at the fair that would eat anything.

I wonder if you are going to get more goats soon? I bet you could live on a goat farm when you grow up and have lots of funny goats! You would really love that. Then you could take your goats on runs with you and enter them in goat races and they would all win! You would need a lot of logs to keep them all in though, unless you took them to obedience school!

I never knew you had goats! Do you still have them? I can't believe they still got out even though you lined it with logs. They sound really smart. I like the name Domo. And the reason why you named him that. I would never be able to think of a name like that.

Thats really cool, Lillianna! Goats are cool but i think having pygmy goats would be even better! They sound more like dogs then goats... Maybe you could teach them tricks like, sit, and rollover! You could enter them into a dog show haha!

Good writing!
