About Prairie Ranch

We are located in Western Washington, near the town of Yelm. We currently raise Wensleydale Sheep. We are helping introduce the Wensleydale Sheep to the United States. 

We also enjoy the company of a Standard Schnauzers. Our first SS, named Tessa, ran the house and tries to run the farm. We lost her at age 15 in April 2011. Our younger SS is Lexi. She is black and has a wonderful funny personality.

In 2002 we added 2 Polish Tatra Mountain Dogs.  These dogs are used as Livestock Guardian Dogs (LGD) and ours have been learning to serve this purpose.  They came to us from Poland.   In 2003 we added another  Polish Tatra

Mountain Dogs who comes to us from Finland. 2004 saw the loss of one of our first Tatra's. She crossed over the rainbow bridge in March of that year. We miss her dearly.
       

Our animals have really added to our life and become an important part of our day-to-day existence. Each one has its own unique qualities.

We are really happy to be a part of the alternative livestock community. We have enjoyed country living for the past 19+ years and have added to our ranch over that time. We started with Romney sheep to help “mow” the grass and it has grown from there.
