In Memory of Mac

Mac lived for his family and loved adventure. As the first addition to our family, he came into our lives as a cautious, shy little pup who quickly grew into a loving, confident, energetic, little schnauzer. One of his favourite games was Hide and Seek with his toys. You could call out for any one of his toys by name, he would seek them out and proudly bring them to you, no matter how tricky the hiding spot. He loved water, and would even jump into the tub when he felt it was time he needed a bath. He was always up for anything, the first out the front door and into the car before the kids even had a chance to get their shoes on, ready for the next family adventure. He loved going on road trips with us and was the happiest when we were all together. At night, after the kids had fallen asleep, Mac would do his rounds, checking up on them making sure they were safe before curling up in his own bed and going to sleep. On December 3, 2013, we lost our dear pet to diabetes. He was with us for 12 wonderful years. He brought our family so much joy he will not be forgotten. Rest in peace Mac.
