Both Karl and Mandy grew up on farms in rural Iowa. We met while running our own businesses on Sun Valley Lake. Karl works for himself as a carpenter, remodeling homes. Mandy is a former ICU nurse turned full time mom. Together, with our two young kids, we love raising these puppies.

After we bought our second dog, Tammy, we co-bred with John and Lori Posthuma of Stonyridge Kennels. We’ve been so fortunate to learn from their wisdom and experience.

In 2024 we whelped the first Sand Creek litter. The Griff community took us in with open arms. Karl has spent countless hours on the phone and hunting with true enthusiasts of the breed. We would not be here without them.
