He has the longest, smoothest, and straightest horns of all 11 goats, and he's very good at using them to keep the others in line. He's also a very good boy. Dexter never grabs the paper maps out of visitors' hands or sneaks into the alpaca pen for an afternoon grain snack. But he's secretly afraid of some things, like the generator, the big green ball, and—horror of horrors—having his hooves trimmed.
