When Ali Tisdall went for a jog with her three dogs in Hot Springs, North Carolina, she suddenly found herself at the head of a procession.

Besides her dogs, Tisdall is also a proud goat owner. And they clearly see her as the head of the herd, as when she took off jogging, her goats went too.

A video that went viral with more than 17 million views shows Tisdall trying to persuade the goats to stay put. However, her pleas were ignored as the athletic goats followed her on a countryside run of several miles, ending back at her farm where the exhausted animals took a well-earned rest in their sheds.
