Promise is a huge, very impressive looking doe both in size and structure.  Combining incredible length and strength of bone she still manages to maintain her femininity.  As a very immature yearling and at times verging on being somewhat frail looking, she rarely placed well in her classes, most of the time being at the end of the line.   Since then she has grown into a beautiful productive doe.  There are so many things we like about her, we wouldn't know where to start.  The biggest thing is she is a fabulously productive and stable milker and empties it all out at every milking.  There is hardly any spare tissue in this doe's udder.   Not our highest appraising doe, yet, she is the one from which we would retain a buck. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2009:  Promise freshened this year with a mild case of mastitis which made her a little light on the production this year as compared to others.  She is slightly lopsided and if you didn't know to look for it probably wouldn't notice it.  She needs one more leg to finish, but after freshening with mastitis, and kidding so late in the season (June), we took it easy on her and didn't take her to but a couple of low key shows.   She really was looking fabulous this year at the age of 4, so maybe this coming freshening, at 5, will be the one with which we can finish her championship.  She was feeling slightly camera shy in the picture above, but you get the idea of how she was looking! 2008:  Promise placed either 1st or 2nd in all classes she was shown in.   As we went further into the show season she placed more often in 1st.  She won a restricted leg going reserve to Splash, who at that point was finished.  Then she went on to win Senior Grand Champion Alpine Doe at the 2008 Oregon State Fair over other finished champions that were shown in the regular classes.  This gave her the 2nd leg towards her permanent championship.    She appraised EX90 as a 3yo and was also awarded her superior genetics designation.   She peaked at 15lbs a day on milk test.  2007:  She started moving up the line but was still needing some maturity. 2006:  She really wasn't shown much as she was milking so heavily we had a hard time keeping her well fleshed.   She placed at the end of the line in most shows as she was somewhat frail looking.  Daughters in Herd:  Assurance, Proverb, Prominence.
