My horse wasn't happy with goats. It wasn't until we got the second horse that he became relaxed and happy. The goats might have kept him company, but they didn't make him feel safe at night when predators are out. two horses kind of make each other feel safer because one is always on watch, i guess. of course, we live out where mountain lions exist. but a horse in the suburbs probably still thinks there are such scary things in the shadows, lol.
