If you'd like to know more about us personally, here you go...

Perhaps the most important thing to know about us is we are a conservative Christian family who believe in Christ and the power of prayer. Our faith is a big part of our lives. It is what guides and directs our actions and relationships, including how we will approach the issue of breeding and presenting our standard schnauzers to the world. 

We obviously love standards schnauzers. After nearly 12 years of owning minis, we had two of our beloved dogs die unexpectedly due to poor genetic health; the 3rd was in poor health from young age and lived most his life ill and weakened. This was the main reason we turned to the SS breed. We now are proud parents to 5 healthy standards, the oldest of which is nearly 13 and still kicking!

In addition to our dogs, we are a family of 5 with 2 parents and 3 grown kids. Our oldest son is in the Navy; our daughter got married last summer and is blessing us with a grand-daughter this fall; and our youngest son is currently on a 6-month mission trip in the South Pacific and will return to college upon his return.

We are also a military family and come from a long history of military service on both sides. Mr. Mac is a retired Marine (as are both our fathers and other family members), and we are still adjusting to the civilian lifestyle. (It ain't easy!!)

We're proud fans of the University of South Carolina Gamecocks (even post-Spurrier). That's just a bonus fact ;)
