Thank you to Kale and Kelsey for working with us to bring this creature to Cambridge! Hard Knocks offers tremendous breeding hog feature, combined with show hog presence, look, and comfort level. To top it off, his dam was an incredible show gilt in her own right and came out of an incredible litter that had winners at the Jackpot, County, State, and National levels.

We are way behind on marketing at DHY, but we’re very proud to present a new wing of our showpig project that has been a goal since I was a little kid flipping through boar catalogs and old Seedstock Edges:

“Burn the Ships”

White Flag x UFC (Grand Overall Gilt at the 2022 American Royal, NJSA Eastern Regional, and NJSA Western Regional) Mother of Revive at Southern Gold.

Bred by and owned with S&K Showpigs
Limited Semen Available
Call for Pricing/Availability.

Our next step in making SW Yorks and better livestock here in general. Use BTS on little cute ones that need more feature, width, body shape, hair, athleticism and presence. Out of one the best pure females I’ve ever laid eyes on.

“Rescue”

Buckle Up x Next Intention x Never Before

Bred by S&K Showpigs
Call for Pricing/Availbility

Full sib to Reserve Middle Cross Gilt at 2025 San Antonio Gilt Show. Has few mates on feed for majors that look the part.

Use Rescue to moderate length of body, and add width, power and feature on ones that need it. Ideal show barrow proportions and feature.

Thank you to a couple of my favorite Ohioans for making this happen- Levi Stauffer for working with me on getting this pair here, and Hunter Shoemaker for his guidance on getting collection and processing process started.

Please reach out to Jacob Hall or myself with any semen inquiries.

Thanks as well to our bidders and buyers on our first couple online sales! We are blessed to have you as friends and customers an we are excited about the reception and homes our pigs found.
