Want to bring some barnyard life to your urban street? Pygmy goats may be a surprising and fitting possibility. Pygmies have been popping up all over the country as a popular pet choice. They have a sweet disposition, do great with kids, and are very intelligent. Check out this video of these pint-sized playful pygmies having a romp on the deck!
So a pygmy goat walks into a bar . . . well, maybe not into a bar, but along the streets of San Francisco! Over the weekend I met this little pygmy goat in a trendy area of the city, and his owners couldn't be prouder. I'm not quite sure how you'd register a pygmy goat as a pet (or where you would keep it, and how you'd prevent him from eating all of your important documents), but he sure was cute. Not only cute, but he was personable — he walked right up to passersby and wanted to nudge and play with a few dogs as well!

You've heard people say, "lean on me." Well little Jitterbug the pygmy goat thinks, why lean on when you can stand on! And that's just what he and his little punk twin Rocky do to patient Buren, the Great Pyrenees livestock guardian dog. They're eight-weeks-old now. I don't think Buren's gonna be so sweet about it in a few months. . .
