With black red or dun color sandwiched about a white middle they are familiarly known as Belties among breeders of the animals or Oreo Cookie Cows to fans. Though references to sheeted cattle occur in literature and art as early as the 11th Century the Belted Galloways first recorded history indicates that they developed during the 16th Century in the former Galloway district of Scotland a rugged and hilly seacoast region where hardiness was necessary for survival. Belted Galloways are the heart and purpose of our society.
