     OUR  NEW BREED ASSOCIATION OFFICERS,  NOAH BARKLEY, VICE PRESIDENT ON LFT AND MIKE MALOY,  PRESIDENT ON RIGHT PICTURED WITH MACQUEEN AND RON FLETCHER. THANKS TO PRISCILLA MALOY FOR TAKING THE PICTURE.

    RON WAS NEWLY INDUCTED INTO THE NCC HALL OF FAME, HAVING BEEN A BREEDER SINCE 1982 AND A GREAT AMBASSADOR FOR THE BREED. WE BOUGHT OUR FOUNDATION EWES FROM RON IN 2008 TO FOUND HIGH ROAD SHEEP, AND RON ASSURED US THEIR GENETICS WERE FROM THE WILLIS FLOCK IN MARYLAND, A FLOCK I FOUNDED IN 1966 WITH CANADIAN IMPORTS FOR MCKENNY WILLIS. THAT FLOCK IS NOW OWNED BY SUSAN DAVIES IN MARYLAND, WHO IS A VERY CAPABLE CUSTODIAN AND  GOOD FRIEND


The Old GUYS

        WE HAVE BEEN PRIVILEGED TO KNOW RON AND CONNIE SINCE BEFORE WE FOUNDED HIGH ROAD SHEEP IN 2008. RON AND I HAD BEEN LONGTIME DIRECTORS OF THE BREED ASSOCIATION  UNTIL THE RECENT RESTORATION AND 

INSTALLATION OF NEW BOARD MEMBERS.

WE WERE PRIVILEGED TO PARTICIPATE IN A TV PROGRAM FROM BBC SCOTLAND  REGARDING NCC EMBRYO IMPORTATION FROM  SCOTLAND                        TO  U.S.A.   WE SENT THEM SOME VIDEO CLIPS ABOUT OUR OPERATION.  THEY USED THE EWES BUT NOT THE DOG. I THOGHT THAT CLIP RELEVANT SINCE THE LUCKY SCOTTISH SHEEP MEN DO NOT HAVE COYOTES OR BEARS TO DEAL WITH..

OUR First U.S. Record breaker Supreme ram WV $2000

       NORTH COUNTRY BREED PRICE RECORD HOLDER                                       HIGH ROAD 0085    $2000  2012


   THIS RAM WAS SUPREME OVER ALL BREEDS AT THE WEST VIRGINIA PUREBRED SALE, PETERSBURG, 2012. THE FIRST NORTH COUNTRY CHEVIOT EVER TO WIN THAT HONOR.  A YEARLING, HE TOPPED THE SALE AT $2000, SETTING THE U.S. RECORD FOR THE BREED. HIS FIRST SON WAS RESERVE NATIONAL CHAMPION RAM IN 2013 FOR SUSAN DAVIES.   JULIE TOOK THE PICTURE SO I COULD SHOWBOAT.

    THE PURCHASER WAS TERRY WOODS, CRIDERS, VA WHOSE SHEEP OPERATION IS ALL COMMERCIAL, NO PUREBRED EWES. TERRY HAS BEEN A GOOD CUSTOMER OVER THE YEARS. 


       PICTURED WITH JUDGE BRAD KASLER FRON OHIO, MACQUEEN AND ROBBIE McNABB HOLDING. I HAVE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE IN BEING ABLE TO HAVE ROBBIE HANDLE OUR SHOW AND SALE SHEEP.  HE HAILS FROM OUR OLD HOME COUNTY IN WEST VIRGINIA AND IS A VERY PROFESSIONAL SHEEP SHEARER AND SHOWMAN. I KNEW HIS DAD WELL. BOB SADLY DIED MUCH TOO YOUNG AND WAS A GOOD SHEEP MAN LIKE HIS SON.

This was the youngest ram at the 2011 Virginia Ram Lamb Performance test. He failed to pass the semen test and was thus ineligible to sell in the sale. I thought the ram had better days ahead, and elected to keep him over for a yearling.

 His fertility was lacking due to his age, and he subsequently bred extensively. I lent him as a lamb to Steve McHale to breed 5 Chieftain daughters I sold him that fall, and the lambs that resulted made a splash as is mentioned elsewhere  in this site. His three soms provide the first picture on our home page

FLOCK SECURITY DIVISION - KENNY

    WE  ABSOLUTELY CANNOT RAISE SHEEP IN THIS AREA WITHOUT GUARD DOGS OR OTHER PROTECTORS ON DUTY. OUR PRIMARY PREDATORS ARE COYOTES, BUT WE ALSO HAVE BEAR, AND SOME SAY BIG CATS LIKE MOUNTAIN LIONS OR PANTHER. THE AUTHORITIES ASSURE US THERE ARE NO BIG CATS, BUT WE KNOW FOLKS WHO HAVE PICTURES OF THEM ON THEIR GAME CAMERAS. THE GUARD DOGS STAY AROUND THE SHEEP 24/7 AND MAY BE ON PATROL THROUGH THE NIGHT. THERE ARE SEVERAL GUARD DOG BREEDS, LIKE  GREAT PYRENEES, MAREMMA AND ANATOLIAN SHEPHERD, BUT KENNY IS FROM A RARE ONE.

       KENNY  IS A FOUR YEAR OLD MALE KARAKACHAN  (BULGARIAN SHEPHERD DOG). THIS IS A RARE BREED IMPORTED TO VIRGINIA BY DR. PHILIP SPONNENBERG FROM VIRGINIA TECH WHO FEARED THE BREED WAS FACING EXTINCTION IN BULGARIA. KENNY IS BIG AND STILL GROWING. HE WEIGHS AROUND 150 LLBS. HE WAS BORN IN GREENBRIER COUNTY, WEST VIRGINIA WHICH BORDERS US.  NOTE THE SHORT TAIL. WE HAVE NOT LOST A LAMB TO PREDATORS SINCE KENNY TOOK OVER.  HE WAS NAMED AFTER MY FAVORITE NFL FOOTBALL PLAYER, KENNY "THE SNAKE" STABLER, LATE GREAT HALL OF FAME QUARTERBACK FOR THE OAKLAND RAIDERS IN THE 1970's.
