A 2,000-pound cow does not care about your inbox, your commute or the traffic on I-25. She just wants a good scratch behind the ears, and she has all day to wait for one.

7 Colorado Farms Where Shaggy Highland Cows Wander Right Up To Say Hello

Several small family ranches across the state let you meet these long-haired cattle up close, from the foothills near Loveland to the quiet valleys around Collbran. Many visits are by appointment, which keeps things calm, small and far from the usual weekend crowds.
