DUNLOUISE CORTACHY BOY Born 28th September 2004. Semen currently being collected for sale overseas. Any enquiries, please contact us directly.

DUNLOUISE KARLA The only Scots-bred Angus at an international beef cattle show in Germany this weekend were two heifers imported this year from the same herd: G & J Soutar's 120-head Dunlouise herd from Kingston farm outside Forfar…..and one of them went on to win the breed championship in a field of 80 Angus cattle from all over Germany and Austria. George Soutar was present with his wife Julia and daughter Louise to see the Angus champion's award at EuroBeef 2006 in Schönbronn, Bavaria going to Dunlouise Karla, an 18-month-old daughter of Lockerley Kind Pascall. The event judge was Luxembourg Angus breeder Gerry Ernst. Karla's exhibitor was Baden-Württemberg farmer Benjamin Junck who had bought the heifer at Perth sales this spring and shipped her back home to his 200-cow herd along with another two heifers from the same herd, Vallerie and Evie. In fact Mr Junck says he is so impressed with the breeding of the Forfar Angus herd that he has since bought another three females to be delivered in September. Speaking at the German event, Mr Soutar commented that it actually represented a double triumph. "These heifers were actually the first Angus cattle to be shipped out of Britain for over 17 years - along with a 40-head consignment leaving at the same time to Estonia - since the imposition of the BSE export ban. It's also a success for British Aberdeen-Angus breeding because our herd is the only one remaining in Scotland without any imported Angus breeding in its bloodlines. Dunlouise Karla, who was led round the ring by Mr Soutar's 14-year-old daughter Louise, is in-calf to one of the herd's stock bulls Dunlouise Excalibur which itself has had a fair measure of export success in the last year with some 8000 units of semen plus embryos sold abroad. Among the countries importing Excalibur's genes are USA, Canada, Brazil, Germany and the Baltic States.
