Skilo Bear

Skilo Bear raises Samoyeds in Wayland, Massachusetts, a suburb about 20 miles west of Boston. The kennel is run by John and Helen Sullivan, whose love of the breed is reflected even in the name they chose — "skilo" is the Greek word for dog, a nod to the Samoyed's striking, bear-like appearance.

The Sullivans have been involved with the breed since at least the 1980s, and their program carries genuine credentials within the Samoyed community. Helen Sullivan holds a position as an AKC judge and has served as a past president of the Minuteman Samoyed Club. Skilo Bear is also recognized as an AKC Breeder of Merit. Health clearances are a central part of the program, with all dogs used for breeding required to carry the appropriate clearances before being paired.

For anyone searching for Samoyed puppies for sale in Massachusetts, Skilo Bear represents one of the more established names in the state, with a long record of involvement in both breed stewardship and the show community.
