Thank you Gene. It would not only take years of breeding, but standardizing those crosses. Are the Dexters the bulls or the cows? Then, how many offspring...

Hi Pat, I have a question for you. If these "mini" Shorthorns are of ASA pedigrees, why not do as the Miniature Herefords, sticking with AHA registration...
Hi Pat, Just my 2 cents. In Canada we can start a registry that represents an "evolving breed" until we get enough animals "recorded" and try to "breed up"....
Pat, don't take offense, I'm just asking because I'm curious, but how are you going to keep these small if you breed to bulls that are 10" or more bigger then...

or AMSS registration. Also, many people have purebreds, but are not members,
and...
Actually, the Shorthorn is a name that evolved in America, as they were
