I have two pygmy goats who think they're dogs. They get along with our beagle, cats, ducks... I've not seen anything that bothers them, really. However, the woman who I bought the goats from recently had several goats killed by her german shepherd mix dog when it got off it's leash.
So, the problem isn't with the goat, it's with the animals around it.
Don't get me wrong, some goats are down right mean and go after anything that moves. But I think that's upbringing. Mine were bottle fed and hand raised.
Good luck.

I have raised several goats over the last 8 years and the one we have now is a Pigmy goat. He's nearly 8 himself and his pen mate is a female red sheep, 5 years old. 2 of our dogs are allowed in the pen to run, our wolf-hybrid and our spaniel/pit/lab/whatever mix. They get along great as long as the goat is boss. We've been doing this for most of those 8 years. Also some of our cats love going in the pen, he likes to play with then and I've caught a couple of the cats trading headbuts with him. This doesn't hurt them, he is quite gentle. My neighbor's 4 year old plays with him, supervised only. Personally I haven't found an animal on my property that he didn't get along with. The bobcats never messed with him either.

goats get along well with just about anything, dogs can scare them if they are not friendly.
