Welcome to Wags Ranch!
We are located on the northeastern edge of the Palouse region just east of Moscow, ID and have been raising Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats since 2007. We are constantly striving to improve our herd specifically and the breed in general. We were blessed to have amazing mentors from the moment we bought our first does, including one who was a judge and on the committee that wrote the breed standard. For years we participated in an informal Linear Appraisal (LA) with this retired judge.
In 2019 after moving to Idaho we signed up for ADGA Plus and have been waitlisted every since for Linear Appraisal. We are hopeful that we will finally make the list this year and it appears appraisers will be coming to Idaho in July of 2022. We have been doing the milk testing portion of the Plus for several years now and are happy to report that the vast majority of our does easily earned their milk stars, even the first freshners.
We use WADDL biosecurity screening and our herd last tested clean in January 2022.
