Anyone know if mini goats and lambs can use doggie doors?

Oh, thankyou @ashcrash19 that’s a good idea! I think I will try that instead of the little shed I was thinking of making for the little goat.

@crocobaura Im getting a goat for a family with a toddler, and I don’t have room for a barn. It’s a 20x30 lot ( I think ), by the ocean in San Sequoia, and I already have a green house and a spaceship that my astronaut needs for work, along with the house. I’m hoping the pergola won’t be too big for the area I have.

Well, a shed or a pergola or even a barn doesn't matter because they don't really use it. I was surprised that during heavy rain even the horse stayed outside.

I noticed that with the horses too, at first I thought it was because the horse was brave, and a free spirit, but then I made another family with a horse that had neither of those traits. Sometimes that horse went inside during the rain, sometimes it didn’t. However, in the second situation there was no lightning and Thunder. I did wonder if a fearful horse would go inside their stall during a thunderstorm.

All my mini goats and sheep sleep around their owners' beds, which is adorable. I make sure the doors are locked for the horses only and the little critters use the regular doors. The house used to have about 4-5 steps, but I lowered the house to just one step because I couldn't stand seeing them out in the yard in a freezing blizzard. (I know, I'm silly :D )

Horses without the free spirit will sleep in the stalls but the free spirits need to sleep outside...a "don't fence me in" type. :D

Yeah, the house where the mini goat will be has stairs to the outside plus stairs to the bedrooms. But I will give them something outside they can use, even if they don’t use it.
