Dwight D. Hossle

Dwight D. Hossle raises Chianina cattle in Faulkton, SD, serving Faulk County and the Great Plains near Sioux Falls. He has been breeding Chianina cattle for over fifteen years and holds active memberships with the American Chianina Association, ensuring each animal undergoes routine health testing, including fertility, structural soundness, and calving ease evaluations. Calving facilities are heated in winter and shaded in summer, while calves are handled daily to grow accustomed to human interaction.

His bloodstock includes multiple national show champions and animals known for gentle dispositions. Operating from a third-generation family farm, he follows low-stress cattle handling methods and manages rotational grazing on native grasses.

Cattle graze on mixed-grass prairie supplemented with a balanced grain ration formulated to support muscle development and fertility. Breeding pairs are sold with parent verification and documented lineage to foster transparency. Regular veterinary check-ups and herd health planning take place year-round, ensuring a robust breeding program.
