The Saanen dairy goat, named for the Saanen valley in Switzerland,
is the
largest of the dairy breeds, and is pure white or light cream in
color. Saanen does typically mature out around 150 pounds, and
bucks around 200. Along with their sweet temperaments, Saanens are
known to consistently produce large quantities of milk.
Sable dairy goats are simply Saanens that are not white.
