Bonnie Hays Animal Services Helps Family Get Their Goat

They got their goat.

And have the Bonnie Hays Animal Shelter to thank.

On Sunday, a police officer from Tigard found the goat - whose name turns out to be Daisy - wandering.

He brought the goat to the Bonnie Hays Animal Shelter, dropping her off a s a stray.

"On Sunday morning our staff checked our kennel area where police officers drop off animals that they bring in after hours," said Deborah Wood, manager of the Bonnie Hays Animal Shelter and Washington County Animal Services.

Staff bought goat food for her to nibble on.

"Daisy seemed quite content, and our staff enjoyed taking good care of her until she could be reunited with her owner," said Wood.

The shelter also currently has two stray bunny rabbits and a parakeet.

"We usually have about 50 animals come as strays that are not dogs and cats each year," said Wood. "You just never know what will happen when you walk into work in the morning. We love that about our jobs."
