The Sierra’s, Breathless’s and Breathtaker’s have influenced and dominated the breeding programs at Hill Haven for over a decade. We continue to find new sires who can build on and improve the foundation female genetics of this family. We proudly lead off our sale with offerings from our premier cow family.

Selling 50% embryo interest with the buyer receiving 100% of the first flush to the bull of the buyer’s choice.

Polled. Breathtaker 35Y, pre-eminent daughter of our powerhouse foundation female, Breathless 13U, has risen to herd matron status in her own right at Hill Haven and she is offered here in the prime of her life. The proof of her value can be seen in her progeny in Lot 2. As well, two daughters sold south of the border: MQ Breathtaken 19B was high seller in our 2015 Selection Sale and she is at Respite Farms, KY and Breathtaker Ava 27D is at Knepp’s, Indiana. And how many proven, dominant cow families can claim they produce first class bull power along side their female stars? Breathtaker can! Her 2015 natural calf, Fire Storm 28C, current herdsire at Hill Haven and with semen sales influencing genetics in the US and Australia, was Grand Champion Bull in 2016 at Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, Toronto. Also, Breathtaker’s natural bull calf this year by CSF Evolution is simply awesome and show ring bound. If her progeny record is not convincing enough, Breathtaker is also a show ring dazzler. She has two Grand Champion Female banners and a Reserve Grand Champion Female banner in 2012, 2013 & 2014 at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair and that was following her calf championship win at Canadian Western Agribition in 2011. That is what you call an “All-Star” show career. Her flush record is an average of 8 quality embryos over the last 4 flushes. Open, ready to flush.

Rosalinda’s dam is from one of our longtime, very consistent cow families, the Roses, who originated from Archie Currie’s Glen Islay Shorthorn herd in Ontario. Rosalinda is sound in her structure and moves like a cat just like her sire.

Horned. Charm 1E proves the potency of the Breathless cow family. She is Breathless 13U’s natural calf and she is a full sister to Breathtaker 35Y, our lead off Lot 1, who she resembles to a tee as a calf. Charm 1E has tremendous potential. She is one of the longest spined females you will find that also has power and a super sweet front end....all the traits every show heifer needs to walk to the front of the line. So expect to be in the winner’s circle with her this year and then bring her home and she will go to work making the next great one for your own program.

You might say that these two full sisters have everything but their age in common. The Breathless/Waco combination has worked for us every time. Take a look at the similarity with their other full sister, Breathless Tina 22C who was the high seller at our 2015 Selection Sale and went on to win Reserve Grand Champion Female at RAWF in 2016 for Blenview Farms, ON. There isn’t a heifer in this sale that can match the capacity and smoothness that Ellie 6E puts together for the show ring. And her older sister Rita 10D is calving to CSF Evolution next year... what a dynamite combination that should be. Big sister or baby sister, you can’t go wrong with either one.

Hill Haven is fairly well known by now for purchasing Shadybrook Verona 49G when she was 10 years old because, despite her age, we saw the potential for establishing a star cow family of our own. We hit the jackpot! The Hill Haven Verona cow family is one of our very best. It was a double arm twist to convince Dale to let these two heifers go in the sale...but only on choice.

Polled. We are very excited about this young bull in the making. He demonstrates everything we look for in a future herd sire: masculine bull features, correctness in his structure, ultra sound and soft made. He has started to express excellent muscle definition and shows very good testicular development at a young age. Pathfinder is one of the freest moving bulls we have raised.

Pathfinder weaned off at 830 lbs., one of the highest recorded weaning weights at Hill Haven and it puts him in the Top 15% of the breed for both WW and YW. Pathfinder has valuable outcross genetics in his pedigree. His dam came from the well known Glen Islay Shorthorn herd in Ontario. Miss Poppy 23U is one of our top females for no maintenance and superior maternal traits. At 9 Years of age she still has a picture perfect udder and she continues to produce a top tier calf every year.

Pathfinder’s sire, Saskvalley Primo 40P, a very poplar bull in Canada for over a decade, is appreciated for his moderate size, soundness, big body, and he excels in his consistency. Both dam and sire come from no nonsense, commercially oriented Shorthorn breeding programs so it is Pathfinder’s destiny to follow his genes and prove he’s inherited their hardworking, dependable, consistent characteristics.

NPS ROSES RIDER 151HI VIEW’S ACE OF DIAMONDS


Two sisters from a great cow family and sired by SS Fizz who is a full brother in blood to Aviator. The consistency in these heifer calves is what the Myrtle Bo’s are known for. Although they are a few months apart in age, both heifershave great balance, stoutness, neck extension and that undeniable show ring look. Senior and Junior heifer calf banners are awaiting their show ring appearance. After their show careers they could be feature donors for their new owners.

NOTE: Blenview Farms has entered both calves at the Royal Winter Fair and would be interested in working with the new buyers for this year’s show season.
