Breeders
In the U.S., the majority of breeders are in the East, with herds throughout New England, the Midwest, and the Southeast. The breed is slowly moving westward and there are now herds in the western states of California, Oregon and Texas, with registered animals in all continental U.S. states. The Belted Galloway Society, Inc. breeders may be accessed through The Canadian Livestock Corporation's website, www.clrc.ca which contains a listing of breeders by state.
There are a number of Beltie breeders throughout Scotland and the rest of the UK with a noticeable concentration in the breed's home area of Dumfries and Galloway. The Belted Galloway Cattle Society holds its Annual General Meeting and Breed Society Show and Auction every October in Castle Douglas, Dumfries and Galloway.
Belties are also raised in Australia with herds found throughout the country, even in sub-tropical areas. A small number of Belted Galloway herds are present in New Zealand and Canada.
