Christine Zielinski, worked with Doug Belter, an all round handler in Canada. Doug won Best in Show at the Show of Shows in Toronto several times and did well at Westminister and other American shows. She also spent six months working and handling with Bill and Taffee McFadden. Christine grew up with Terriers. Originally her mother had Lakelands and now has Kerries. Christine raises Irish terriers, grooms and handles other Terriers as well. Her most unusual best award, to this date, is getting a Best In Show on a Dandie Dinmont terrier, plus many group placements and/or BIS's on Kerries, Irish and Lakeland terriers. She shows in the other groups as well. Janice Gessner |

Vicki and Chris specialize in terriers, but handle all breeds. Vicki has a vast realm of knowledge and experience having apprenticed under Maripi Wooldridge, Bergit Coady-Kabel and Clay Coady before pursuing her own career as a professional handler. Many, many years ago, while handling a Kerry Blue Terrier, she won her very first terrier group. |

Laurie handles all breeds. She does mostly sporting breeds but is a wonderful handler. I'm not sure if she'd attempt to groom a kerry but is an exceptional handler. Member of the Professional Handlers Association Diane Lee |

Real professional, honest, organized and willing to share their knowledge with less experienced dog owners, without the arrogance sometimes displayed by other handlers. The grooming areas and kennels are mega clean. They are attentive and caring with the dogs and towards their owners. Their assistants are polite, helpfull and work as a team. It is obvious that they enjoy showing dogs and present the dogs at their super best. Louise Piche |

Diane Engelking is a wonderful pro handler. She grooms very well, and she treats her client dogs as if they would be her own dogs. She is also very easy to get along with. I have been very happy with the her, and she is the only one I would trust my dogs with!!!! Melissa Engelking I just love her, and so do my dogs. They go into the ring having fun and looking perfect. She trains them so well. You can really tell she loves the dogs and truly cares about them. Its hard to find a handler like her. Hanna Smithberg |
