Sower Toy Sundog Cattle

Sower Toy Sundog Cattle raises miniature Longhorn cattle and Sundogs in California with care rooted in practical ranching traditions. Under the direction of Ralph Sowers, the farm holds membership in national livestock associations and follows recommended health testing protocols for breeding stock. Animals graze on rotational pastures, enjoy year-round access to sturdy shelters and water sources, and benefit from daily low-stress handling routines that support calm temperaments.

With a history grounded in small-scale stewardship and hands-on ranch management, the operation balances modern husbandry methods with respect for the animals’ natural behaviors. Participation in regional breed exhibitions has brought positive feedback on conformation traits and maternal instincts among its cattle.

Located across California near Sacramento, the farm maintains complete lineage records and emphasizes transparent breeding practices. Regular updates on herd health and documented birth histories are provided to support long-term herd planning.
