We had cut our
Alpine herd tremendously in 2006. Our son Dylan had kept a small
core of does for his herd and was looking for one really nice
mature doe to add. After asking everywhere and not finding any
available that pleased him, he was looking over the pens of
Sunshine Farms at the 2006 National Show and found Tirria. He was
smitten and immediately asked his Dad and I our opinion. It was
his choice, his money and now his doe! I am pleased with Tirria
and think that he made a great decision. She is a very powerful,
deep bodied, gorgeous uddered doe with just about the best
disposition that we have had on an Alpine. Not to mention a
multiple generation SG doe, she LAʼed 92 to further establish her
correctness. Tirria freshened this year milking an impressive
16lbs and looked smashing. She picked up two GCH legs and was BUOB
4 x's, 1st aged doe 5 x's. Tirria also LA'ed 92 EEEE again, this
time as an aged doe making it a permanent score!
Both Tirria's
doe and buck kid by *B Willow Run WRAW Jasper were retained in the
herd from '07. The doeling, Tahiti was 12th Intermediate kid at
Nationals, 1st at State Fair, and 2nd at the EX Show. The buck
kid Treason remains as our herdsire and has been used heavily. We
are very impressed with both Tirrian, Jasper and his littermate
sister GCH Willow Run WRAW Jasmin 4*M. Their dam is the gorgeous
GCH Willow Run Josephina 3*M also a previous National class winner
and Sire is *B Willow Run Abraham Wonder. Thank you to Paul and
Beth Adams in their generosity in allowing Dylan to use Jasper on
Tirria!
Tirria will be left
open for 2008
