MSPCA looking to find homes for over 100 goats seized from Dighton farm

DIGHTON, Mass. (WLNE) — The Massachusetts SCPA said Thursday that they are working to find homes for over 100 goats that were seized from a Dighton farm.

The owner of the goats, who the MSPCA said is involved in an ongoing law enforcement case, did not pay a $100,000 security bond by the July 29 date set by a judge. Because of this, the goats, as well as an emu are available to be adopted.

“The sheer number of animals [in this case] and significance of their medical needs have stretched all of our space and staff resources to the max, but those challenges are worth it knowing that we are able to find them new loving homes,” said Mike Keiley, director of adoption centers and programs at the MSPCA-Angell.

The goats are all different ages, with over 24 of them being babies, or “kids” that were born after the seizure.
