Laverne, a three-year-old Nigerian Dwarf goat, was playing her usual game, "hop on pop" or "goat yoga," where she jumped on the man. At first, the man stood and bent over a bit, insisting Laverne jump on his back, but she could not jump as it was too high. To make it approachable for her, the man kneeled down and bent over completely on all fours. Laverne then quickly hopped onto his back.
