Elite Accredited Bulls

The English Dexter Cattle Society (DCS) has an assessment scheme for Dexter's.
Accredited bulls that have passed the necessary criteria from this scheme are known as "Elite".
There are various stages within the Elite group which goes on to recognise quality progeny.

It can take many years to...
1. Breed an animal that would be considered good enough to be assessed for the scheme,
2. Then have it awarded the "Elite" status as an individual and,
3. Go on further and the progeny assessed as well.

It is a time consuming and very costly exercise for the breeder.
As a society we must recognise these bulls and also the lengths that fellow Dexter breeders have gone to have their bulls assessed and then accredited and recognised as “Elite”

To date there is semen from 2 UK "Elite" bulls available in New Zealand.
They are Brambledel Redberry Prince and Moomin Posh (the actual bulls are not in NZ).
As far as council is aware this scheme is only open to UK bulls at this stage and no NZ Dexter's have been assessed in this scheme .

DCSNZ Council have made a decision that no advertisements will be accepted for the Dispatch or Dial a Dexter that use the word "Elite" to describe an animal unless it pertains to an actual accredited "Elite" bull.

All such advertisements will be returned to sender to be amended before being published.
