Leewood Ranch

Based near Mannville, Alberta, Leewood Ranch is a multi-generational family operation managed by Colt and Shannon Arnold along with Colt’s mother, Debbie. Managing a herd of approximately 500 cattle and 1,500 acres of cropland, the program specializes in Fullblood, Red, and Black Simmentals, maintaining a balance of 300 registered and 200 commercial cows. Their breeding philosophy centers on a "real-world approach," treating purebreds identically to the commercial herd to ensure they are functional, fertile, and easy-fleshing for the everyday cattleman. By utilizing extensive AI and an embryo transfer (ET) program with elite donors like Skors Red Renowned 125A, the ranch produces rugged, performance-driven seedstock designed to excel in commercial environments for years. Their commitment to quality is showcased in their annual on-farm bull sale, where they offer a diverse selection of bulls and replacement heifers backed by a satisfaction guarantee.
