"Hello!

My name is Erin Teets, and I live in Newnan, GA.

I took home a female puppy from your Banbury Cross Farm in Aikenback in the summer of 2006.  I wish I could remember her mom's name!  We brought her home and named her Clover. She was THE BEST DOG I've ever had, surpassed all of our expectations as well as meeting them--she was healthy (until the very end), loyal, extremely loving, playful, intelligent, quiet, and clever (and dare I say, psychic!). She turned my husband into a die-hard dog lover, which I thought impossible.  

Unfortunately she died at the age of 15 back in 2021. We buried her on our land and even handmade a grave stone

with her name and clover shapes engraved on it.  She is missed every day.  I still can cry just thinking about it!

Whether or not you choose to post the attached photos is fine.  I just wanted to honor her memory by sharing these sentiments with you (who helped bring her into the world), as yet another testimony to the qualities of the amazing Carolina Dog...as you can see she exuded beauty and joy. Her smile was my favorite.  I'm so happy to have found you guys and been so privileged to have made Clover part of our family.  We chose not to have (human) children, and Clover was our 15-year old daughter and well, she might as well have been a human because she really understood us, could read us like a book and I swear could read our minds ;)  I'd love to have another CD one day, but right now I'm helping my 14-yo German Shepherd ease into her final years and she's a handful right now.  One day when I can invest the time/attention/training to a CD, just as I did with Clover, I'll be back to your farm. She's quite possibly the best money I ever spent, and really the happiness and laughter and love she brought us was PRICELESS.  They'll never be another Clover.  R.I.P."

 

Thank you again for your work with these wonderful animals.
