“Momma, I’m starvin’. Can I have a cookie? I need a cookie, Momma. Please can I have a cookie? Pleeease? I’m so hungry. I need a cookie. I’ll be good if you give me a cookie. Would you give me a cookie, please? I love you Momma, can I have a cookie? I promise I won’t try to boink my brother anymore if you’ll give me a cookie. Just one cookie, please? Pretty, pleeeasse? I’m starvin’, Momma.”
I had to explain to Bo that while his performance was award winning, his waistline begged to differ.

I am facinated by the shape of the pupil in sheep and goat eyes. It gives them such a "knowing" expression. It's like they are tolerating us as a sub-species or something.
That has to be one of the cutest pictures ever!
How could you possibly refuse that plea? I would break down in a second....

Could you come and talk to my elderly corgi for me? His waist line is on the large size, but his pleading is "Academy Award".

@Robin - not sure the look is "knowing", perhaps "FOOD?!" :-)
I remember our goats would always make me feel so guilty because I couldn't pick them up and cuddle them like I did when they were kids. They were all big babies. Loved the photos of the quilts. Thank you.
Awemygosh is that cute! I would have probably given him a cookie... or two!
How about half a cookie :-) How can you resist that face :-)
There must be a script somewhere. I'm getting the same dialogue from all the ewes....(substitute more grain for cookie)!
So you've got brother-boinking over there, too, huh? :-)
But seriously, you did give him a cookie, right? And, if you did, I'll bet he stuck to his word and was on his very best behavior and certainly didn't ask for another one. heh.

How nice that you can speak "goat" LOL!!! This post made me laugh!
But he is so handsome....
