Dawn Franke

Dawn Franke raises purebred French alpine dairy goats just outside Dallas, Oregon, in the heart of the Willamette Valley — about 45 minutes southwest of Salem. The farm has been operating since 2011, when it began as a small, five-acre family operation with a hands-on approach to animal care.

The herd is registered with the American Goat Society (AGS), and kids are tattooed with AGS or ADGA identification before leaving the farm. Breeding decisions focus on strong dairy character and correct conformation, with goats suited for dairy, show, packing, or companionship. For anyone searching for dairy cross goats for sale in Oregon with a documented herd background, Franke Farm's French alpine lines offer a clear starting point.

Herd management follows a detailed routine: hooves are trimmed on a regular schedule, the animals are fully clipped each spring, and coats, eyes, feet, and teeth are monitored consistently. The goats graze a four-acre pasture using a rotational grazing system and receive a varied diet that includes local grass hay, fermented alfalfa, and a custom grain blend during late pregnancy and lactation. A livestock guardian dog watches over the herd during the day, and the goats are secured in a barn at night. Kids are primarily dam-raised with regular human handling.
