Story:
Reet is not just a buffalo at Saab Farms — she is a story of passion, commitment, and respect for animal welfare.

During our search for elite Nili-trait buffaloes across Punjab, our team traveled to the Sutlej River belt near Arifwala. There, among many good animals, one golden-brown buffalo immediately captured our hearts. Her structure, curled horns, bright moti eyes, and strong Nili traits were exceptional.

We offered a premium price, but the owner refused. It was only her second day after calving, and in the extreme May–June heat, both Reet and her calf were tied in the open sun. Despite increasing our offer, we had to return without her.

Yet, we could not forget her beauty and genetics.

Driven by instinct and responsibility, we traveled nearly 300 kilometers again to find her. When we reached, her calf was still thirsty, unattended, and exposed to heat. We lifted the calf into shade, gave it water, and called the owner. We expressed our concern over the mistreatment and firmly insisted on bringing Reet to a better home.

That day, Reet finally came to Saab Farms.

At the time, she was suffering from hypocalcemia and weakness. For over a month, our team provided traditional recovery herbs, balanced nutrition, and constant care. Slowly, she regained strength — and then proved her true worth.

Reet went on to become one of the best performers of our 2025 herd, delivering consistent high-quality milk and demonstrating outstanding stamina.

Today, she stands as a symbol of:

• Responsible breeding
• Ethical animal care
• True Nili-Ravi genetics
• And the values of Saab Farms

Reet reminds us that great animals are not only found — they are rescued, respected, and nurtured.
