Glenannan Dexters, Dexter cattle in Alberta, operates in Southern Alberta near Calgary. William Jeffray has been raising Dexters for over a decade, maintains membership in the Canadian Dexter Cattle Association, and follows routine genetic screening protocols to support herd health. Calves are raised in pasture environments from birth, receiving daily handling to support gentle temperaments.

Fields rotate seasonally and receive custom mineral blends for nutritional balance. The farm’s grass-fed approach yields consistent marbling and reflects a commitment to sustainable pasture management. Biosecurity measures are in place to protect the herd, including controlled visitor access and regular veterinary checkups. The farm grounds include shelter barns and irrigated paddocks that ensure comfort in varying seasons, with shade trees and windbreaks woven into each pasture. Many local chefs and artisan butchers note the breed’s lean profile and mild flavor as hallmarks of Glenannan Dexters’ care.
