Goats are nice because they'll take care of the weeds; but as others 
have pointed out, your neighbor's flowers are weeds to a goat.

Horses are much more discriminating in their tastes.  I have one, and 
when I take it out on a lead to graze, it neatly avoids a few types of 
weeds in my yard, and happily eats others.  It also has a distinct 
preference for different types of grass, when given the choice.

If you have a daughter, horses are better.  Horses attract girls, and 
that way your daughter has friends and will leave you alone when you 
want to work on something.

Regards,
John
