Pleasant Valley Angus

Pleasant Valley Angus is owned and operated by Cory and Sarah Foss, along with their kids, Addison and Hazen, and Cory's parents, Jerry and Judy. Cory is the third generation to run cattle on the ranch, which headquarters six miles west of Sidney, MT.

Foss' started AI-ing extensively in the 90's on their commercial cattle, as well as doing custom AI-ing for friends and neighbors. Cory and Sarah added registered females in 2008 and that portion of the herd has steadily grown since then.

Currently we market a select group of yearling bulls and heifers in the spring. Our goal is to raise an elite set of females that produce powerful, functional, maternally-based cattle. The cow herd is run on native grass and salt/mineral as long as the weather allows. The cows are brought back home for the winter and spring months, where the calving and AI-ing take place. We require our cows to be structurally sound, fertile, easy-fleshing with good feet, udder and disposition. We try to breed cattle that hold up to the extremes this country throws at us. If they can't breed back, hold their condition, and have good feet, all while raising a quality calf, then they leave; no second chances. We feel that these kinds of genetics are what will keep not only us, but most importantly our customers, in the cattle business; it's not something we take lightly. After all, this isn't just a cattle business, it's a people business.

Our annual spring production sale will be held at Sidney Livestock Market Center on April 2, 2025. Sixty yearling bulls and 35 open replacement heifers will be offered.
