Goat pageant in La Plaine

A goat pageant was one of the many activities that formed part of the first ever goat festival held in La Plaine on Saturday.

The aim of the festival was to highlight the work of goat-rearing farmers in the area.

Other activities included Lapo Kabwit drumming displays from the two major Lapo Kabwit groups in the community, a goat race and musical performances.

DNO was able to obtain some photos from the goat pageant.

    There’s the Wesminister Dog Show. Why not the La Plaine Goat Pageant? I have mixed feelings about this. Good meat, do not hurt them, Have fun.

    Dominicans are funny people,everything is a whoopla for them. A little fun and entertainment. No cruelty to animals here folks. The same set that crying foul on a little goat PAGEANT are the same set blocking their colons with meat.

    This is not funny at all. This is just another form of animal torture. Let the animals live the way the way they are comfortable. Not with bags hanging around their necks and cameras all in their faces.
    I expect thumbs down nevertheless i feel obligated to raise the awareness for better treatment of animals. When i see people stoning dogs in Dominica it hurts. Animals hurt and feel pain just like we humans.

      in the states where you live they dress up their animals,make them do all kinds of things yet you say nothing but your country D/a you find fault….way papa

      No pain was inflicted on the goats, its just fun, how u know the goats were not enjoying that, they were posing. Then stop the hunting and stop catching the turtles, and stop the men from harassing the animals stop the beastiality.

    • Show me the money
      August 5, 2012

      Those goats are not in pain. Abuse is when you hurting some one or the animal. May be you need to have a life all the people that have dogs and dressing them up , what would you call it dog abuse.learn the meanning of abuse.

      August 5, 2012

      Animal torture? Are you kidding me? The animals got flags wrapped around them, not needles stuck in them. You, sir/maam, are an idiot. You remind me of these animal rights activists in the US who, when President Obama was being interviewed back on TV in 2009 and a fly was buzzing around – he slapped the fly dead…they protested and made a whole issue about how the fly should be protected and that he should have just shooed away the fly instead of swatting it – they were idiots too, and so you join their ranks….you have nothing better to do with your time?
