Dana L. Salazar

Dana has had many hats; from owning her own framing and art gallery to running her own law firm to shepherding her own flock of sheep; it seems like she’s done it all. The spark for Dana to get sheep was when she went to the Dutchess County Sheep & Wool Festival for the first time and met some very friendly Gotland sheep. After years of saving and dreaming, Dana was finally able to start her flock with 5 of Quinto Melo Gotland’s sheep.

Dana loves shepherding her flock and enjoys the time that it brings her and her daughter together.

Emma L. Salazar

Emma is Dana’s daughter and co-shepherd. She assists with shearing the sheep, managing the website, overseeing yarn processing, and supplying sheep-cuddles. Her favorite cuddle-buddy is Joy (as seen to the left). Emma loves to knit and can’t wait to make things out of their first ever batch of yarn.
