Hello!!  Welcome to Mockingbird Hill.  We are located in the heart of Southern Illinois, approximately 15 miles south east of Marion, IL.  Mockingbird Hill is the home of Tommy & Patricia Phillips, two Standard Schnauzers, nine Miniature Schnauzers, a Blue Heeler, quarter horses, walking horses, a foxtrotter, and a Molly mule.

         We have been raising Miniature Schnauzers for 27 years. We are very proud to say that we have puppies in 28 states, and Canada. Several of our babies have lived to be 15+ years old.  Families looking us up after many years to buy another of our puppies.  That makes us very proud and happy that we have placed puppies in loving homes. Two of our present miniatures go back to our original breeding stock. Our dogs are raised in a home environment, are well socialized and make delightful companions.We breed for health & quality. Puppies do not leave until they are 8 weeks old. By this time they have had two vaccines & been wormed a minimum of three times. They will have had a health check by our vet.  We prefer to sell with a spay or neuter agreement. We also have a sales agreement - guarantee against chronic or genetic disease for one year. The goal is to have healthy, happy, loved babies and happy families. I have personally had a miniature in my life for 35 years. If you live within driving distance, we welcome puppy visitations .. get to know your new baby before you take that precious little thing home! And you get to meet the parents of the puppies.
