Thanks to Marilyn Woolsey (Almar Acres) for the chance to own this beautiful doe.  In her first show of 2018, Idaho earned her dry leg and went on to win Best Junior Doe In Show that day.  

We love this long, correct doe and her well attached mammary system with nice texture and she looks absolutely amazing this year (2021).  Idaho went Grand under both judges at the May 2021 Fuzzy Show in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho with some very strong competition.

Maggie milked 5.9lbs on her one day test as a 2nd freshener.  WOW!  Easy to milk, buttery soft texture and beautifully attached mammary. 

Maggie is dry for 2023 as she did not settle this year.

Rein was 5th place out of a large, competitive class at Nationals and earned her dry leg that same year (2019).  We were thrilled!  
As a FF 2yr old (2021), she earned two Reserve Grands, two Grand Champion legs, and one Best of Breed making her a permanent champion (pending).  We have received many compliments about her and are excited to see the impact her offspring will have on herds all around the US.  Rein is truly a complete package.  Breeding very dairy animals that are simply shorter in stature is what we're all about.

CH Blue Bear BD Little Willow  1*M   EEEE91  (Reference only, retired)
5/25/11

CH Blue Bear BD Little Willow (5/25/11) was our first doe.  My husband picked her out as a bottle baby and I'm thankful for his good eye!  She is a correct doe with a high, tight, and beautifully blended mammary system.  We have retained three of her doelings as this is just the type of doe we are breeding for.  She earned her final championship leg at the 2015 Evergreen State Fair Open Show and we are thrilled!

Willow has won eight BOB titles.

3/16/10

SG Blue Bear BD Hershey Kisses (3/16/10) joined our herd in the Spring of 2014, thanks to Kevin and Becky Allen at Blue Bear Farm.  She is a flashy, blue eyed doe with great length, body capacity and a capacious mammary system.  Hershey is sweet as can be... my lap goat.   Hershey earned her final championship legs in 2018 at the Udder Spectacular Show in Monroe, WA and the Wine Country Classic in Kennewick!   In addition she earned Best Udder of Breed at the Clark County Fair in August 2018.

We were contacted by Mary's former owners as they were dispersing their herd.  What a great addition to Highland Ranch!  Mary has now earned two championship legs (both in 2020 at large, competitive shows), one best of breed, and two reserve champion placings.  She has thrown beautiful kids and we retained a 2020 buckling.  Mary is a total love.   We have also retained a 2021 doeling, Highland Ranch VP Pr. Buttercup, who earned her Restricted leg at the NEWDGA Show in Spokane, WA.

Highland Ranch PD Alyeska - "Aly" - Reference only, retired

Sire: Highland Ranch 8SR It's Payday  SS: HetlandCreek TT 8 Second Ride *B  SD: SG Blue Bear BD Hershey Kisses
Dam: CH Blue Bear BD Little Willow   DS: Camanna BJ Blue Dakota  DD: CH Blue Bear SB Afternoon Delight
We love this girl... looks so much like her beautiful mom. Her beautiful udder is a reflection of her dam's. We are loving how highly attached it is with nice capacity for her size, and a strong medial suspensory ligament. Aly has earned one reserve champion win. Aly got 6th place out of 66 two year olds at the ADGA National Show in 2019!
Unfortunately, Aly had a tough kidding in 2019.  We believe she got rammed resulting in dead kids and a very difficult delivery which left her with scar tissue on her cervix.  She won't be able to be bred again so she is enjoying retirement here.
