Hello! I'm Garrison. Yes, I am named after Garrison Keillor - thanks, Grandma. With my wife Tiffany, we're living our best life, raising our son - Avery, and working remotely for family-based businesses most of the time.

After years of building custom homes in North Central Wisconsin, I started my own business and will be working training doodle puppies for Stokeshire full time. In addition, I'm a Flight (M)anny flying puppies and occasionally driving them across the country and maybe one day, abroad; Ireland, please!

In between training and flying, I enjoy small construction projects and building tables for our family company, Riv & Eve. I work with Stokeshire Puppies on their ENS and ESI training and let's be honest, I clean up a lot of poop; the human and canine variety. I work out of the studio's office entering data for the BadAss/Empowered Breeder Program.

We're always learning around here; tweaking our systems and protocols to deliver the highest quality puppies and experience to our clients and their organizations. My focus is working with puppies who are going to be used in a therapy setting. Our adult dog, Molly helps in the socialization process and Avery is a huge part of the process as well.
