Mountain Top

Mountain Top, Dorper sheep breeder in Booneville, AR, Arkansas River Valley near Fort Smith, tends a small family flock with a focus on welfare and sound structure. Mike and Carol Struble have raised Dorper sheep for several years and keep detailed health records, following recommended screenings for parasites and hoof health. They maintain membership in the Dorper Sheep Society of the United States to uphold breed standards. Mountain Top selects breeding stock for structural soundness and strong maternal instincts to support resilient flocks suited to small-scale operations.

The flock grazes on open pastures with daily access to sheltered barns and natural shade, and lambs are socialized from birth to encourage calm temperaments. The farm’s roots in rural Arkansas provide a peaceful setting where animals are handled regularly. Feedback from local homesteaders notes the lambs’ gentle nature and adaptability to diverse environments. Mountain Top’s hands-on approach reflects a belief that consistent care and respectful handling form the foundation of a healthy flock.
