Team MacKay

Patrick "Pat" MacKay Family Patriarch; Co-Captain

Works at Skyward, Inc. Patrick loved the Doberman Pinscher breed since he was a child and always knew he wanted to share his life with them. We have owned 3 Dobes and fostered many more. Pat's hobbies include being a movie buff, building and fixing things. He's quite the handyman- very good with home maintenance and enjoys the challenge of learning new skills and building. Pat earned the nickname Twinkle Toes for his incredible backwards running and flying front crosses while running agility courses. Patrick shares in the adult and mundane responsibilities of running the household.

Joyce MacKay Family Matriarch; Co-Captain

I have a Marketing Degree and over 35 years experience working in media marketing, advertising and PR. I got out of the intense rat race and currently enjoy working flexible part-time at Lands' End in the Business Outfitters Internet division. Photography and dog sports are hobbies I am passionate in pursuing. I love to read- usually dog, training, photography, or marketing books and I have a wicked, dry sense of humor (inherited from my mom for sure). I share in the mundane and adult responsibilities of running our household.
