Terms The terms of the sale are cash, cheque, wire or etransfer, payable on location or within 15 days following the sale to Dorran Cattle Co. The right of property shall not be exchanged until after satisfactory settlement has been made. Every group will sell to the highest bidder times the number of head in the lot; the auctioneer will handle any disputes if needed. Announcements from the auction block take precedence over printed or previously announced details. All monies are in Canadian funds. Viewing Summer evenings are a great time to come view the heifers on pasture. Call/text Ryan at 403-507-6483 to stop by for a visit! On the afternoon of sale day, heifers will be penned by sale lots at the barn. Pregnancy/Health Verified Dr. Waylon Wise, DVM, at CCHMS performed ultrasound pregnancy examinations on all heifers. A 283-day gestation table was used based off the natural service observation in combination with the dated ultrasound verification. Heifers have been on native pasture since the first of June and had free choice salt and mineral. USA Buyers We welcome U.S. customers. Transportation as well as health and export paper fees would be the responsibility of the buyer. Dorran Cattle Co. will help with arrangements. Contact Ryan before the sale for more information. Current U.S./Canadian exchange rate would put Americans at a significant advantage paying around $7,300 USD for every $10,000 CAD bid. Transportation Buyers are responsible for all transportation of sale purchases. We kindly ask that heifers are at their new homes by the last week in September. Dorran Cattle Co. may be able to provide some guidance and help to line up transportation arrangements if needed. Accidents Although every precaution will be taken, Dorran Cattle Company or any sale staff will not be responsible for any accidents or loss of property. Said parties assume no liability, legal or otherwise as a result of this cattle facility or auction.
Thank you for your interest in our 6th annual sale! We’ve grown up in the cattle industry yet paved our own path in a niche market of bred heifers for both the purebred and commercial cattlemen alike. What seemed a distant dream has now been a reality for six years, and we thank each of you for that! The buyers, bidders, attendees and supporters from afar – THANK YOU! Success stories of our heifers keep us motivated. Numerous youth have been successful with Dorran Cattle Co. (DCC) progeny! Never in our wildest dreams did we think this would be something we could brag about, however, we think this goes to show the phenotypical-type we are looking for. These aren’t just heifers – we pride ourselves on heifers that are the front-pasture type! From the stories that come in, we think we have achieved the high quality type that will raise the top-end steers and replacement heifers to impact your bottom line. This year we are reminded of the financial contribution of a premium recipient mother. We have dozens of purebred cattlemen each year who tell us they should have bought more from our sale. With all the money it takes to invest in an embryo transfer program, having that quality recipient mother is essential. Calve this group of heifers. Get a quality first calf and great calving experience. Then, stick an embryo in these powerful, good-mothered females for that dynamite embryo program! You won’t be disappointed! Commercial cattlemen, we have even more opportunities for you this year! We’ve heard you loud and clear, and so, we’ve cut out 30 heifers to intentionally breed late for you! These heifers are half sibs to the early calving group, with the same docility and quality to boot. However, they will fit your calving months of March and April, and we can’t wait to see what they do for your program! Your return on investment promises to be good in this cattle market. Dorran Cattle Co. heifers have been selected from astute cattle breeders across Alberta and Saskatchewan. Some of the breed-leading Simmental, Red Angus, Angus and Hereford sires make up these pedigrees, helping you feel confident in these replacements to strengthen your own herd. Lots of these girls are purebred OR on the TELUS Animal Record Management...leaving the guesswork out of the equation! Heifers are identified by their Dorran Cattle Co. number and penned in lots of two to four head by phenotype and calving date. All heifers were exposed to our service sire bull battery, each backed by phenomenal cow families! We look forward to the fun you are going to have calving this group of heifers! We are very proud to present them to you on September 3! Be sure to come early for the hospitality!
Ryan, Cassie, Dalton & Tucker Dorran

ROI We’ve done everything we can to make sure your return on investment is impressive for a first-calf heifer. McKinnon Cattle Co., Tschetter Farming and Brooking Angus Ranch have some beautiful DCC cows walking their pastures. We expect cows to go out and work for you and raise big calves at weaning. Mader Ranches raised a $12,000 bull in their sale last year out of a first-calf heifer. Great job to these forward thinking breeders; we love seeing your success stories!
