Welcome to MK Haus Farms

Pontiac, Illinois

There’s always something to look forward to around here. Sometimes it’s seeing what color a new Longhorn calf turns out to be. Sometimes it’s watching a litter of German Shepherd puppies find their feet. And some of our favorite days are when our grandchildren come to visit. They love being on the farm as much as we love having them here.

We’re Mike and Kara Spinner, and this is the life we’ve built together. We bring a lifetime of hands-on experience to raising pure East German (DDR) German Shepherds, Texas Longhorns, and foundation Quarter Horses. Our dogs are where more than three decades with working German Shepherds come to life, and our horse program is home to SR My Poco Wrangler, our 100% NFQHA stallion. We still get excited about every litter, calf, and foal and seeing what each one carries forward from the animals we love.

We’re glad you stopped by. Have a look around and meet the animals that make this place home.

What to Expect

Exceptional Quality & Responsible Placement

As preservation breeders, we are committed not only to the animals we produce, but also to where they are placed. For our DDR German Shepherds, we carefully screen potential owners to ensure they understand the structure, training, and commitment required to properly develop these dogs both mentally and physically.

All puppies are placed on Limited AKC Registration. Exceptions may be made for proven trainers and responsible preservation breeders.

AKC registration may be upgraded by providing MK Haus DDR with:
• Passing hip and elbow X-rays (OFA or equivalent)
• A passing Embark Breeder test

At MK Haus Farms, every breeding is purposeful, every placement is considered, and every generation is built with the future in mind.
