Home Again

We're back from the ADCA Annual General Meeting, Show and Sale in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  Look what followed us home!  That's Bar None's Stewie and his mom, Bar None's Luna.  Both are chondro carriers - and yes, we know....we've always had a chondro free herd.  Here's the thing though - Luna is a perfect Dexter in every way.  She's just shorter - and we'll always breed her to our non-chondro bull (or an AI non-chondro bull) and test the offspring.

She has the sweetest personality, milks, shows - the whole package in one little Dexter cow.  Plus she's perfect for show and tell.  It's hard to explain the "difference" in carriers vs. non-carriers, so having one here for showing and telling will really help.  Having a chondro carrier at Moosters is a good thing! So she has short legs - so does Vicki!  'Guess we'll have to change our web page that says we have a chondro free herd. 

The AGM was a great experience, as usual.  Thanks to Linda for putting it all together!

There was food - a barbeque on Thursday evening, plus great catered dinners on Friday and Saturday nights.......

Awards on Saturday night (we forgot the camera so no pictures of Saturday evening activities).  Loaded up early on Sunday morning and headed home.  It was great to see old friends and make new ones.  Dexter folks are just the best!
