Sammy is the perfect all-American dairy girl.

​

Sammy came to us from longtime Alpine breeder, cheesemaker, and inspiration Laini at Lazy Lady Farm and is from a powerhouse line of Alpines jam-packed with remarkable animals. Her sire Bo's dam, Shine's Lanky, milked 3,210 pounds as a first freshener and was over 4,300 pounds by her second year. Another star in Sammy's pedigree is SG Redwood Hills Lance Jitterbug 5*M, 2010's national top producer with over 5,000 pounds.

While Sammy came from a production line, we quickly became aware there was more to her than just milk in the pail. When we put her in front of the appraiser in 2024 our instincts were confirmed. She scored VEVV 89 as a 5-year-old and the appraiser couldn't find enough good things to say about her, scoring her over 40 in both strength and dairyness and remarking that all dairy animals should be as well balanced as she is. When we brought her out to her first show at the 2024 Caledonia County Fair she immediately won Grand Champion AOP. She's been to more shows since then and earned her stripes as a fierce competitor. 

Sammy is huge - we affectionally call her "Moose." She has a level, beautiful E topline and a powerful front end and shoulder assembly with E front legs. She balances this out with V rear legs and a long, level V rump with a taut, proportional, healthy mammary system. At six years old her mammary is as nice as it was at two. She's everything you could want.

Sammy is afraid of mice and the dark, so Tyler plays old-timey jazz for her when he brings her through the woods to the milking parlor at night.
