Nigerian Dwarf Goats – Temperament and Behavior

An award-winning director based in Georgia, Steve Colby founded Pogo Pictures, a leading commercial production company, in 1999. Since then, Steve Colby has directed some of the most memorable advertisements for some of the largest corporations in the world, including Mercedes-Benz and Amazon. In one of his most-recognizable spots, a Doritos ad that aired during the 2013 Super Bowl, he featured his pet Nigerian Dwarf goat Moose.

Nigerian Dwarf goats are a breed of miniature goat that can be raised on smaller farms and residential plots. These goats make popular pets due to their gentle and playful nature. They are intelligent enough to be trained to walk on a leash.

Unlike other goat breeds that can become aggressive during mating season, Nigerian dwarfs tend to retain a calm demeanor. Their predictable behavior makes them more suitable for families. These animals are also very social. As proof, behavioral issues such as excessive braying can occur if the goat is too lonely. For this reason, they should be kept in pairs. However, they can also form bonds with other animals such as horses or dogs.

The Varied Musical Possibilities of the Basic Ukulele

Steve Colby is an Atlanta, Georgia-based entrepreneur who guides Pogo Pictures, where he creates impactful ad campaigns for a wide range of brands and vacation locales. A music enthusiast, Steve Colby enjoys playing instruments such as the violin, guitar, piano, and ukulele.

An ideal instrument for beginners that features only four strings and manageable frets a short distance apart, the ukulele has a standard tuning of G-C-E-A. This makes it ideal for songs in the key of G, ranging from traditional Hawaiian tunes to those by songsmiths such as Bob Dylan and Bob Marley.

One aspect of playing that gives the ukulele a distinctive sound is the strumming pattern. One syncopated style that works well with a variety of songs is a downward strum, followed by five down-up-down strum patterns. This is capped with a down-up strum before the sequence repeats.

A popular attraction of standard ukuleles is that they pair well with other types of ukuleles, such as soprano and baritone models. One style that works well in duo settings is to have one player play chords while the other picks a melody line. With practice, players can switch off at will. And if both can sing in harmony, that makes songs even more memorable.
