Having narrowed your choice down to probably a couple of potential breeds (which
we hope includes Shetlands!), you will now wish to see some actual cows in
the flesh and talk to owners about their experiences.
Although some of our members do show Shetlands, this is
not a significant activity for most of us.
In any case, the best way to see our cattle is in their working
environment - on the farm or smallholding – where you have the opportunity to
see at first hand what they are capable of.
Our members are widely distributed throughout the UK, including Northern Ireland and some Scottish islands and most are only too pleased to be asked to show off their cherished animals
and be given the chance to talk “shop”.
In addition, members with stock for immediate or future sale, are encouraged to provide these details to the
Association Secretary. He is therefore
in a good position either to put you in touch with breeders in your area who
would be happy to show you their stock, or to provide information on stock
for sale.
If you wish to take advantage
of this facility, please .
