Hi, I’m Chevy

Chevy was the first to hop off the trailer onto the grass at Barn Sanctuary in October of 2017. His two goat friends, Martin and Steve, followed right after. The three amigos, as they’re affectionately known, had been together for a few months and had experienced a traumatic event together, along with our two sheep residents, Rose and Ruth.

Earlier that summer they were packed tightly into a trailer surrounded by other goats and sheep. The owners of the truck pulling them decided to run from the police in what news stations later called a “high-speed chase,” with goats and sheep on board. The driver crashed the trailer during the chase and several of the animals inside died from their injuries. Chevy was one of the lucky survivors. The drivers were charged with over 80 offenses, including animal cruelty.

Chevy is one of our quieter, more reserved goats. He likes to lounge with his buddies but rarely chooses to socialize with humans unless treats are involved. Chevy’s attitude is unwaivering - he’s an independent spirit with a calm demeanor.
