Sand Creek Kennels - Iowa Wirehaired Pointing Griffon Breeders

If you are considering a Gundog, you cannot go wrong with a Griff from Karl. Our 7 year old, Dash, is in his prime and is everything we had hoped for in a pup. He has great instincts, hunts hard, and is a sweetheart who does great in the house. Dash scored a 110, Prize 1 on his NAVHDA Natural Ability test due both to his great instincts and breeding, and the fact that Karl was willing to take him back for several months of training in his first year. This key early exposure and focused attention really helped Dash develop a fantastic drive and cooperativeness.

I purchased a Griff from Karl Groszkruger several years ago. Gus is now 6 and has far exceeded my expectations. Between upland and waterfowl, Gus and I logged a little over 20 days in the field this year. He has great prey drive, but is also very biddable, and checks back with me frequently. He has a fine nose, a very solid point, and is a good retriever. We hunt mostly in southwest Nebraska. Conditions can be pretty rough. His tight, harsh, dense coat is just what the doctor ordered. I’ve also hunted with several of Karl’s other dogs and have found them to be of similar exceptional quality and character.

Gus is also a treat around the house. Although he is pretty high energy in the field, he easily switches to chill mode at home. He is very well mannered, and has a wonderful temperament. He’s also really funny.

I should add that Karl and Mandy were extremely supportive after I brought Gus home. Gus was my first Griff, and Karl spent a lot of time on the phone with me helping me get the most out of our training sessions.

I would recommend Sand Creek Kennels to anyone looking to add a Griff to their family.
