It's entirely possible to take only excess milk from a cow, especially as she will continue to lactate for as long as you continue to milk her. But I also feel it's important for you to know that in the industrial dairy industry what they do is get her pregnant, take the calf away immediately after birth, and then get her pregnant again soon after.
You realize that these cows are not feeding calves, right? **It's all excess. **
If you keep extracting the milk, they keep producing it, even years after their offspring has grown up.
