My name is Tiina Kiviniitty and my family consist of my husband and our children Tia (b.03/05) and Mikael (b. 10/06). We live in the Finnish countryside at the village Vaskio in Halikko, Finland.

I got my first ETT after my matriculation examination in 1998 from Marja Huttunen (Kennel Twinstripe). It was a real coincidence that I found this breed, but ETT stole my heart in seconds. Today we have 5 ETT´s running around at our home and the number of dogs may increase in the future. The 10 years I have spent with this breed have given me a lot and I am eager to meet the challenges that may come our way in the future. Right now the biggest issue around ETT-people is the health situation of the breed and the registration of Toy Manchester Terriers from North America as ETT´s in Finland.

I have dreamed of my own kennel for many years and finally at 2004 I went to the breeders basics-courses organized by the Finnish Kennel Club. In summer 2006 my first litter was born and by February 2007 my kennel name finally got registered. Fall 2007 the first Stonemeadow´s litter was born.  My breeding is quite small and our dogs live inside our home as family members and the foundation for my breeding lies in health, co-operation and openness. I like to keep in touch with the new owners of my puppies and I am happy to help them in every possible way.

I also act as a treasurer and vice president in the ETT division of the Finnish Toy Dog association that was founded spring 2007. I hope that I can do my part in taking this magnificent breed and knowledge of it forward.
It is my hope that through these web pages I can offer you a small glimpse of the wonderful world of ETT´s. Please do not hesitate to contact me and give feedback of my pages and I also am happy to answer any questions you may have about this wonderful breed!
