A beef cow is breed to provide high quality beef while Dairy cows are breed for high milk production. Normally in beef cattle the calf is left with the mother to nurse, in Dairy cattle they pull the calf and feed them 'creep feed' and the mother milk is harvested. You can milk any cow (beef or Dairy) but the yield will be lower on beef cattle and if the calf is with the mother then it will consuming most if not all of the milk.

[Hi, I am from Hawaii and have three family pet cows that we milk. We have one Angus cow (a 'beef' breed whose calf is almost 2 years old now, and she gives milk every day. Our Angus cow's name is Dwadasi and she will not be used for beef. Her milk is very rich.

Yes, you can milk a cow if you know how to do it and have permission from the person responsible for the animal.

Yes, but you won't get enough milk and the cow probably wouldn't stand for it. There are dual-purpose breeds that will produce more milk than normal beef breeds, but less than dairy breeds.

No. Male cows do not exist: Male bovines that are intact are referred to as bulls. If they are castrated before reaching puberty, they are called steers.

If the cow is not milked, she will stop producing milk. So it depends what your expectations are for the cow.
