Breed Success
The breed has enjoyed much success on the show circuit. The performance of the 85 entries at the 2005 Royal Cornwall were described by Farmers Weekly as "always a force, the South Devons were on world class form this year as the Royal Cornwall formed the launch pad to the South Devon World Association’s sixth World Congress."
The South Devon Herd Book Society compiles a list of show results for the major events.

Famous quotes containing the words breed and/or success:
“But as to women, who can penetrate
The real sufferings of their she condition?
Man’s very sympathy with their estate
Has much of selfishness and more suspicion.
Their love, their virtue, beauty, education,
But form good housekeepers, to breed a nation.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“I declare, on my soul and conscience, that the attainment of power, or of a great name in literature, seemed to me an easier victory than a success with some young, witty, and gracious lady of high degree.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
