Would you mind please using paragraphs. Long running posts are very difficult to read.

Do you not have a secure fenced house yard? If not I would suggest you securely fence off an area and keep your dogs contained. It's not their fault they are allowed to roam. This dog is doing what dogs do because no one has trained him not to.

As for the 'taste of blood' comments. Those comments only ever are spoken by the uneducated who know no better. I am very surprised that someone in animal control would come out with such a ridiculous statement.

I would contact the breeder and ask if they will take the dog back and find another home for it. I would also suggest you don't get another dog until and unless you can properly and safely confine it where it can't escape to attack goats.
