missy kielbasa and her dogs

Anne, Germaine and I, owe the greater part of our expertise with dogs to Missy Kielbasa of Sandy Meadow Farm. Missy has been training professionally since 1988 and opened up Sandy Meadow Farm Dog Obedience School in 1993. She is an active member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers as well as the Massachusetts Farm Bureau.  She has successfully trained her own dogs to numerous competition obedience titles, therapy dog certifications, functional farm herding, AKC school ambassador programs, and to perform at various public demonstrations. She is the head trainer for K-9s for Kids Pediatric Therapy Dog Unit, a group of dogs and handlers specially trained to work with physically, mentally, and learning disabled children. Whether you want to train your dog for competition, train a well mannered house pet, or just want a dog that comes when called, Sandy Meadow Farm is without peer.

Topaz Graphics owes no end of thanks to Germaine Ruffo, of Germaine's K-9 Kuties Grooming Salon, for her tireless support and constant good humour. No man on earth can play a better Santa Claus nor would our dogs ever look so good without her intervention. You will see Germaine's dogs present in a number of the "fun" pictures on this website. And we are both most proud of the prize winning photo of Germaine's Keyanna which you can access from the home page. Please click on Germaine's K-9 Kuties above to visit her business website.
