Ash-Ana Acres

Ash-Ana Acres raises Pygmy goats in Eagle, Idaho, Treasure Valley near Boise. It has been breeding Pygmy goats for several years, follows breed association guidelines, carries out quarterly health screenings including hoof trimming and parasite checks, and registers its kids with national goat associations.

Kids grow up on climate-controlled pastureland with fresh hay and clean water available at all times, and are handled daily to support calm temperaments. Owners Jim Dowdy and Ashlee Ward apply sustainable farming techniques and animal behavior insights to foster a nurturing environment. The small-scale approach lets it maintain close relationships with each animal, ensuring consistent temperament and conformation.

As members of local agricultural networks, they share insights on sustainable grazing and nutrition. The farm’s proximity to Eagle’s foothills supports natural browsing on diverse brush and grasses. Their Pygmy goats adapt well to backyard herds and first-time keepers appreciate the balanced bloodlines and steady disposition.
