We have had the privilege of owning many outstanding cows, but one that continually tops that list is Dubeau Dundee Hezbollah, affectionately referred to as Hez.  Hez has been the anchor of our female program for nearly two decades.   We acquired her with St. Jacobs ABC in 2009 the year she was Intermediate Champion at WDE.  Max scored EX-92 EEEE as a 4 YO, she nearly succumbed to an injury shortly after earning HM Senior Champion honors in Madison in 2011. Though her show and milking career were over, it quickly became apparent that she had an outstanding ability to pass along her genes to her next generation.  Since then she has impacted the breed in many ways.  Her sons Heztry RC and Heath are in many pedigrees today and her daughters are incredible.  She holds the spot as one of the breed leaders for making excellent daughters and has over 40 Excellent last count.   She continues to impact the business with her genetics.  In 2025 the top of the Woodmansee group at the Trifecta sale was her granddaughter by Sidekick who went on to be nominated All American and has a big future.   Hez has a few more eggs to put in and she has a beautiful Eye Candy daughter we plan to start working.   We lost Hez in her 19th year, but she made over 600 embryos and nearly 200 offspring in her great life.  

Hez was truly an amazing cow – we often wonder what her future would have held if she had been able to continue showing but watching her become a brood cow extraordinaire was truly a thrilling experience.
