Some tips to get goats to trust you are: Use nice words: Use soothing words when you are with the goat. Express love with your words. Give them treats: If you have treats, give them to the goats. Remember to ask for permission from the owner first. Always pet them: Whenever you see your goat of interest, do not fail to pet it. Even if you cannot pet it at that time, just call its name or do something that can attract it to you. Note that this does not happen at once. You need time before a goat will bond with you.
