Purebred
The American Goat Society Inc. registers purebred dairy goats from nine recognized breeds. Breeds registered include: Alpine, LaMancha, Nigerian Dwarf, Nubian, Oberhasli, Pygmy, Saanen, Sable and Toggenburg. AGS was founded in 1935, by a group of dairy goat breeders who wanted the assurance that their pedigreed dairy goats would be handled as purebreds, not as grades.
