PSA for this Tuesday’s client appointments. I’m gonna wager it’s going to be way too cold to be trimming (3 degree and -19 windchill) and since three of five stops are outside work, I think it’s wise to reschedule until the following week and hope for better weather.

Hello everyone, I have a couple goats that are in dire need of a new home. The owner recently passed away and the family is having difficulty taking care of them. They are located in Goshen, Ny. Both are intact male Nigerian dwarf. They do have horns as the picture shows. They can be castrated by me, and I am discussing arrangements to have that done with the person trying to facilitate their placement. If you or anyone you know is interested in taking these boys in please reach out to me so I can put you in contact with the person heading this up.

It is with much consideration and deliberating that I have made the decision that I have to raise some prices in order to make ends meet in this line of work. Recent injuries as well as getting smacked in the face with the cost of living in this state have made it clear this absolutely needs to happen. As of October 2024 I will be implementing these knew prices. If you need to cancel an already booked appointment due to these changes please let me know. I apologize for any inconvenience. New rates are as follows:

Per goat price-
💥$10 per goat- this eliminates the drop to $8 after five that is currently in use
💥$25 stop fee- this replaces the current gas fee altogether and is for every stop
💥$15 per disbudding
💥Last Minute Cancellation fee-$50 to cover the stop and loss of work. (I am a reasonable person, but in the rare instances this happens I do need to be covered for loss of time and money)
All other areas of service will remain the same

With that sorted, another area needs to be addressed. Wild animals! If you can’t catch your goat please don’t expect me to. I have been hurt more times than I can count by owners not being prepared for my arrival and having loose, wild goats or sheep. A scared/stressed animal is more dangerous than anything in my line of work, not only to themselves but to me. Skittish or wild animals MUST be penned in a small space or tied/haltered before I arrive to ensure they and myself are safe in this process. If you have an aggressive animal, I need to know that before I arrive, not as I’m already in the pen with said animal. I have young children that depend on me to come home in one piece, and too often of late I’ve been coming home battered, broken and bruised because animals are wild and uncaught. I reserve to right to refuse service on such animals

Anyone on this route need trims done ? I’m in the area Monday this week and could add a stop or two depending on amount of animals.
