Galloway Breeders,
I am back for another year. I am excited to be involved in the future of this great breed of cattle. It has been a great year for Galloways. The AGBA has once again seen increased registrations and transfers.
The demand for good Galloways is staying strong, whether it is for seedstock, grass finished feeders, or direct market beef. People want Galloways and Galloway influenced cattle.
I would like to thank all the past directors, for what we have accomplished. I would also like to welcome the newly elected directors. I look forward to working with you and building on the success we are experiencing.
The AGBA has a new newsletter being produced by Judy Decker. Judy has done our newsletter in the past and I look forward to her articles.
The AGBA has a new promotional committee. It was discussed at the annual meeting to have a 3 person team to tackle the job of promoting our great breed. We will be sending out news releases via email and Facebook. You will be hearing from the AGBA more frequently than in past years. We want to keep the membership and the public more informed about the AGBA happenings. I feel we have not done nearly enough of this in the past.
The upcoming Galloway show at the NWSS in Denver will feature the top Gallo-way cattle from the US and Canada. Mark your calendars and make the effort to attend this outstanding display of high quality Galloway cattle.
The AGBA will be taking part in the NCBA trade show this coming February, in Nashville, Tennessee. We want to take this opportunity to show the cattle industry that our Galloway breed has many characteristics vital to profitable beef production. We are often overlooked by the mainstream producers. I feel this is due primarily because producers just don’t know what Galloways are, or what they can offer. We are making strides to change the misconceptions about Galloway cattle.
We may be small in numbers, but our breed can make a big impact in your profitable cattle operation.Promoting Galloway Cattle

Another year has flown by…
In January, Suncrest Farm and Glen-fiddich Galloways made the trek to Colorado for the mighty NWSS. It was
exciting and more than I expected. We met new friends and reacquainted with old friends. Thank you, AGBA, for the great hospitality.
The spring brought our new crop of calves, and our junior shows began. Youth Forum is one of the few that our juniors attend. We had 5 yearling heifers represented and 4 market steers. Grand Champion Female went to Glenfiddich Zandra shown by Shelby Mcilwraith. Reserve Champion Female went to Suncrest Zoey shown by Sonja Rechsteiner.
It took awhile for hay to come off the fields because of rain but when it did it came off thick and plentiful.
The CGA annual meeting was held in Red Deer, Alberta hosted by the Alberta Galloway As-sociation. Our Executive President- Marie Blake,
Vice President- Brian Robertson, Executive Secretary- Simon Lagace, Secretary Treasurer- Ron Black
Our directors are Bob Airth, Russel Horvey, James Kurz, Mike Lewans and Steve Schweer.
Our fall brought us in to our show season, be-ginning Labour Day weekend and ending on our Thanksgiving weekend. Suncrest and Sunrise, The Salter and Blake family, Geordawn, The VanKampen family, Cedarmill and Killowent Gal-loways, The Onufers and Glenfiddich Galloways, The McIlwraith Family make up the breeders on the show circuit.
In November, we lost a matriarch in the Ontario Galloway family…. Marjorie Irvine, Avon Acres, from Shakespeare, Ontario. Her welcom-ing, kind smile, and wonderful laugh will never be forgotten.
And here we are, almost full circle, see you in January in Denver….
All the best for 2014!

Australian Galloway Association Report - 2013
Australia’s climate has once again presented challenges for all cattle breeders. With record-breaking heat, severe bushfires, extreme rainfall and damaging flooding being experienced Australia wide over the past twelve months, many people have
faced testing times managing feed reserves and keeping their cattle in good order.
Despite these challenges, the Galloway cattle presented at field days, carcase competitions and shows were a real credit to their owners, and great examples of the Galloway family. Galloways were represented at many field days across Australia, and also presented at shows around the nation, with some fabulous results. There were Galloways and Miniature Galloways featuring in the interbreed results at the Royal Melbourne Show and Royal Bathurst Shows in particular, as well as at the many regional shows. Galloways have also featured in the placings at carcase competitions at the Sydney Royal Easter Show and the National Beef Show, doing particularly well in the virtual taste tests.
The Galloway Family National Show and Sale was held in conjunction with the National Beef Show at Bendigo, Victoria in May 2013. It is many years since the last National Show and Sale, which was held at Albury, and it was great to see the level of support received from exhibitors and the many spectators who made the effort to attend. Galloways, Belted Galloways and Miniature Galloways were judged in their own classes. Southern Cross El Toro, a black Galloway bull owned by Glenburn Station Pty Ltd was awarded Supreme Galloway exhibit. The five year old bull weighed in at 1,103 kg and boasted an eye muscle area of 136cm.
The judge commented that he is hard to fault, with a good front end, natural fleshing and being structurally correct. There were 9 Belted Galloway exhibitors, with Pine Gully Park Gwendolyn, owned by the Heazlewood Family, being awarded Supreme Belted Galloway exhibit. This heifer was 17 months old, and the judge commented on her strong spine and extra length of body. The Supreme Miniature Galloway exhibit was Wilkamdai Giovanni, owned by Cameron and Di Woolfe. This 28 month old miniature Belted Galloway bull weighed in at 650kg, with a 120cm eye muscle area. These three Supreme Champions were then brought together with Southern Cross El Toro being awarded Supreme Galloway Family Exhibit.
The Association’s Annual General Meeting was held in conjunction with the National Show and Sale, and approxi-mately 25% of the membership attended. This was a great result and the committee was pleased that so many made the effort to attend both the AGM and National Show and Sale, making it a very successful weekend. Members were advised at this meeting of the instigation of two perpetual awards – The Shiralee Tomahawk Memorial Trophy to be awarded annually to the owner of a Belted Galloway achieving the highest points in a carcase competition, and the Frank Allen Memorial Trophy also to be awarded annually to a Galloway, Belted Galloway or miniature Galloway achieving the highest points in a carcase competition. It is to be hoped that these trophies will encourage more members to enter their cattle in carcase competitions.
Please contact the Association if you are visiting Australia and we will be happy to put you in touch with any breeders in the areas you are visiting.

The Galloway DispatchG
reetings! My name is Judy Decker, and I will be serving as the (not-so) new
editor of the American Galloway Breeders’ Association quarterly newsletter effective January 2014. My name may be familiar to some of you, as I was editor of the AGBA newsletter, under the moniker The Galloway Dispatch, from 2006 through 2009. I am delighted to be taking the reins again, and I look forward to hearing reports from all over the country about the adventures and successes you are having with your Galloway cattle.
A quick bit of background on me: Married to my wonderful husband Bill, we have two children, a son Ethan in the U.S. Marine Corp, and a daughter Mattie in the U.S. Air Force. We began raising Galloway cattle in 1998. For several years we have been producing and
marketing high quality grassfed Galloway beef, and specializing in low input genetics. We live just outside of Emporia, KS, and oper-ate on around 250 acres. We love our Galloway cattle!
As for the newsletter, the first issue should reach you in early February, and will highlight the activities of the National Western Stock Show and recap the highlights of the NILE in Billings,
as well as the annual meeting. You can view previous issues of The Gal-
loway Dispatch by going to the AGBA website, www.americangalloway.com, and selecting the More About Galloways tab, and clicking on the Past Issues of Gal-loway Dispatch link.
Happy Trails! — Judy Decker, Editor, The Galloway Dispatch

Many AGBA youth have been busy all across the United States with their livestock projects. We look forward to hearing about and featuring
more stories from our youth members. Angie Patton, the recipient of a Galloway project heifer from JD Galloway in Washington, participated in the Eastern State Fair. We are looking forward to hearing more
from Angie regarding her experiences with her Galloway heifer and their adventures. Angie prepared an educational poster to share with people attending the fair and walking through the barns and by her stall. Jim Grant judged the posters and Angie won Best Educational Poster and Best Display for the youth sponsored by the Western Belted Galloway Association. She also received the first Golden Pitchfork award sponsored by Stuart Dykstra for the youth doing the overall best job in promoting Galloway cattle and keeping a clean area around the stalls. There are many opportunities for youth interested in Galloway cattle and current youth members or youth that are full members of the AGBA. Several breeders have offered semen from some of their best bulls to youth members looking to breed one of their heifers or cows. Currently, we are in the process of cataloging that informa-tion so youth will know of available choices when looking to improve their herd of Galloways or add some different genetics. The point sheets used for tracking Galloway activities and our youth brochure are being updated to reflect changes and new possibilities.

REMINGTON SWENSSON PROJECT UPDATE
Go Galloway project heifer, K Dakota, a 2011 summer calf donated to the program by LeRoy Kindler of K
Galloway, was able to experience the life of a show heifer after her relocation in the spring of 2012 from South Dakota to Texas a few months after being weaned. Dakota took to the life of a show heifer easily. She is now working on her second career in becoming a very nice Galloway cow. Dakota was bred to a white Galloway bull this Fall with the hopes she will throw a nice calf to return to the Go Galloway program.

Go Galloway Youth Spotlight:
ANGIE PATTONHi, my name is Angie Patton. I am 17 and a senior
at Elma High School. My grandparents have a farm in Western Washington which I have
helped on all my life. My responsibilities have ranged from working in the hay to helping care for the animals. I found my start in showing cattle when I joined FFA. I got my start about four years ago when I was given the opportunity to show Galloway cattle. I entered a heifer and a cow calf pair at the local county fair. Each year I have increased the number of cattle entered. This past year I entered seven head. I have been traveling to The Eastern Idaho State Fair for two years with my uncle and mom. My first year at the fair I exhibited four heifers. Last year I exhibited eight head and brought a friend along who exhibited her heifer. No matter what show I am at, I always have a display with me and am always promoting the Galloway breed. I gained interest in the Galloway breed from my grandparents and uncle, who have been raising Galloway’s for 18 years. Growing up I learned to work with cattle including sorting, vaccinating, and castrating. I received my first Galloway heifer in 2010 from the club calf program; this was a great opportunity. The same year I received a red pointed bull. Since then my herd has expanded to three solids and three belties. I have had a great experience with Galloway cattle. There are two questions I am most commonly asked and the answers are always similar. The first one people ask is “Why do you prefer the Galloway breed over a common breed?” My answer to them is Galloway’s have a mild temperament, a great disposition, they are feed efficient and don’t have to be supplemented with grain year round. The second question is “What do you mean by they are feed efficient and what makes them different from the common breeds?” I explain that they have a double hair coat that keeps them warmer, which makes them feed efficient. The Galloway breed is hardy and can flourish with very little or no outside help and requires less feed per animal then most common breeds. Through my experience with cattle I have found the drive to be a veterinarian. In the past few years I have learned to draw blood, preg check, and to do the vaccina-tions to make it safer to travel with my cattle. Over the years our buyers seem to love the meat
and come back on a yearly basis. I have also started a bull renting service to help pay for showing as well as saving for school. The local farmers I rent to have continued to call me each year to rent my bull. I receive complements on the quality of the calf as well as the temperament of my bull and how he doesn’t mind people in the field. In the future I would love to see the Galloway breed become more common and for people to realize they truly are the full package from birth to freezer. I hope more kids become interested in showing them and join the club calf program to get started like I did. The experience was phenomenal and I am so glad that I had the chance to take part in it. In the past four years I have learned that no matter what, the wellbeing of the animal comes first. Patience is a key aspect in establishing a good relationship with your animals, not only for training but to have fun. The memo-ries you create are unbelievable. Feel free to give me a call. I love helping others as well as hearing other experiences and learning new knowledge.

Breed profile AmericAn gAllowAy Breeders AssociAtion
You raise cattle for a reason. In fact, probably for several reasons. It might be the only life you’ve ever known, or maybe you started in the busi-ness later in life.
Regardless of the path, you have arrived at this destina-tion: You are a cattle producer. And one thing that cannot be changed is the bottom line: the numbers have to work for you. Therefore your cattle have to work for you.
For the cow/calf operator, cows need to show up to work every day, 24/7/365. Those cows need to be indepen-dent contractors, calving, milking, and rebreeding while making their living off the range. Picky eaters don’t help the bottom line. They hurt it.
Cows need to deliver a live calf every year and mother up to it without your interven-tion, because you’ve got a lot on your plate. A missing calf at weaning time doesn’t help the bottom line; it hurts it.
At weaning time, you need calves that weigh up and go on to fulfill the feeders’ expectations. If they don’t, they aren’t helping the bottom line; they’re hurting it.
For the feeder operator, calves need to be the right kind with natural muscling, and a documented capacity for tenderness, marbling and efficiency. If they lack these traits, they aren’t helping the bottom line; they’re hurting it.
For the stocker and grassfed operator, calves need to demonstrate the ability to excel on forages alone. Choosy, high maintenance phenotypes don’t help the bot-tom line; they hurt it.
The Bottom Line is this: GALLOWAY cattle have a centuries-long track record of production, survival and efficiency. Roy Wallace and Harlan Ritchie wrote in BEEF Magazine, “ . . . Today, GALLOWAY are rec-ognized as the oldest breed of beef cattle in the British
Isles”. They further recognize them as the purest of the British beef breeds. *
And that begs the question, “Why?” Why, when most other breeds have chased improvement through infusion of other breeds, including GALLOWAY, has the Galloway remained pure? Even today the herdbook of the American Galloway Breeders’ Association remains closed: there simply is NO breed-up program.
Answer: It comes down to basics. The Galloway is a complete package. All of the bottom line traits are pres-ent, most in moderation, some to the point of excellence.
Further, the Galloway bull will impart a degree of hy-brid vigor seldom seen in the beef world to-day, courtesy of his pure and distinguished genetic makeup.
Meanwhile, the GALLOWAY cow is doing her part by grazing the plants and browse snubbed by her neighboring high-er maintenance, finicky cows. As winter approaches, she grows a double hair coat, your assurance that she will continue for-aging regardless of what the mercury reads. Come summer, she may keep a short layer of felt around her midsection, her way of re-ducing annoying fly strikes.
In this era of climbing costs for every-thing related to cattle production, you have a real need to maximize resource utilization.
By using a Galloway bull on your herd, and keeping F1 re-placements, you are increasing your bottom line. Period. By breeding those F1’s back to a Galloway bull, and breeding your three-quarter Galloway females to a terminal sire, you have every expectation of producing an industry approved calf at the lowest cost. And that’s significant.
So here we are, at the end. And the question is: What is your bottom line telling you?

Kaehler’s Mill Farm purchased our first Galloway in 1994, joined the AGBA, and have breeding Galloway ever since. We’ve sold breeding stock from New England to Alberta to Oklahoma and all over the Midwest. You can recognize Kaehler’s Mill Galloway by their distinctive green ear tags. In addition, we have direct marketed outstanding 100% grass-finished Galloway beef since 1996. DNA testing affirmed that Kaehler’s Mill Galloway are at the top of the tenderness scale. For the whole package – classic confirmation, exceptional carcass quality, verified tenderness genetics and exhibition excellence – go Kaehler’s Mill Galloway.
