Sandra Miller, artist that creates home accessories from natural stone, President of Goldstar, pictured here with Shiloh. We are sad to report that Shiloh passed away on July 23, 2008. He will be greatly missed by his Goldstar friends and all the people whose lives he touched.
I have known Sandy Miller and her work for a few years. In business and working the animals she is Patient, Attentive, Alert, Loving, Hardworking, Methodical, Concise and so easy to be around. She makes everyone feel safe. She is well disciplined and prepared. She makes the schedule and is always on time. We are looking forward to going to class with her.

Goldstar is doing a marvelous job of bringing registered Delta Society/Pet Partners teams to Taos to serve the community. We're delighted about this, and we support them in every way possible.

People who work with the health, social services, and education communities recognize the growing demand for trained and certified dogs and cats doing therapy work. Every week one reads about new programs and stories where animals aid in healing. GOLDSTAR ANIMALS HELPING PEOPLE brings to Taos a group of dedicated people who put into practice the vision of a society where animals work for our greater good doing therapy, search and rescue, and literacy assistance. Thank you Goldstar for making a difference.
