Smith Show Stock
Smith Show Stock specializes in breeding Dorper sheep in Kentland, IN, in northwest Indiana near Chicago, serving both commercial and small-scale flocks. Riley Smith has been raising Dorper under guidelines from the American Sheep Industry Association and the Indiana Sheep Association for more than five years, ensuring health screenings, parasite management, and genetic tracking for each animal.
The flock grazes across rolling pastures, with sturdy shelters to protect ewes and lambs in variable weather. Routine handling from lambing onward encourages calm temperaments and reliable maternal instincts, making stock easier to integrate into new herds.
Several flock members have achieved recognition at county and state fairs for lambing ease and weight gain, reflecting balanced growth and temperament. Their approach balances traditional husbandry with careful record keeping, tracking lineage to support strong structural soundness and wool quality. Visitors often note the sheep’s approachable nature and the attentive, hands-on care provided throughout the year.
