"I just wanted to say thank you for my happy, healthy puppy. She is the highlight of my day and never ceases to amuse me. It's hard to believe that she's going to be 8 months old soon!
She has really grown into her length and gets prettier by the day. She gets compliments from everyone we meet on our walks and has quite a few "boyfriends." I have attached a couple pictures of her for you to see.
I hope you and your family are well." - Alicia Brown & Mina
I cannot believe that we have had Sydney 9 months already. She is the MOST lovable dog that I have ever been exposed to. She and Sadie (our 11 year old) are the best of friends. Sadie sometimes gets cranky when Sydney's energy level exceeds hers, but for the most part they are inseparable.
Sydney has won the hearts of everyone in the family and she has brought many smiles and laughter into our lives. She is my shadow and is rarely more than 10 ft. from wherever I am. I am attaching some pictures of Sydney and Sadie. I hope you enjoy seeing how adorable she turned out to be. She is a big girl, she weighs in at about 12 1/2 pounds. She has broad shoulders and big paws. When she is with Sadie she makes Sadie look very petite in every way. We get comments wherever we go because most people have not ever seen a piebald.
I hope that you and your family are well and that you have a wonderful
summer. Thanks again for bringing Sydney into our lives.

I bought a black and tan puppy from you 4 years ago and my Friends the Bicking's bough a brown one at the same time. You flew the two dogs to Philadelphia for me to pick up at the air port.
I wanted to let you know that my 4 year old black and tan who's name is Spencer is 4 today. I have attached a picture of him for you to see. He is a wonderful addition to our family and my 6 1/2 year ld and spencer play and do everything together. They are real buddy's. I wanted you know how much we love this little dog, I don't know what we would do without him.
I have attached a picture of him so you can see how wonderful he looks as well as what a cutie he is. Spencer is the one in the front of the picture. The other one is Oliver which I go locally 61/2 years ago.
To give you a better idea of who I am, I was the guy who's house had the fire while on vacation four years ago and I thought it might be good for Oliver to have a brother after the trauma of the fire.
Well I just wanted to take a moment to let you know what a delight this little boy has been and how much love he receives from Oliver, Jeffrey and I and that he is very well cared for. - Marc Udell
"Just wanted to share some recent photos of the baby! Since the day we brought him home he fit right in! He learned the doggy door in 2 days and is doing great with his potty training! He has the best personality and we just adore him. We could not have asked for a better addition to our family.
Thank you for staying in contact with my husband while he was overseas, Buddy is the best birthday gift ever and we adore him."

"Little Lexie has brought us so much happiness.
She is just such a little doll !
She is smart, funny and full of herself.
Fritz is her best friend and they play together, so well.
She has been spayed and we had a microchip inserted, for safety and peace of mind, in case she evers wanders off, although our yard is fenced and she likes to know I am out there with her, so hopefully, we won't ever have that worry !!
They stay inside most of the time, anyway."

"From the minute we saw our dog Max on Lynda Carters Website, we just knew we had to have him. He is a wonderful dog and is now a cherished member of our family. People have said that he is the most beautiful dachshund they have ever seen...and he has a personality that its unbeatable. Carter's dachshunds are the best!" Don M. NY New York
"We had been looking for a sibling for our wonderful 4 year doxie, Piper. We live in Minnesota and after about a year of searching with little success, for a breeder who talked about their dachshunds in a way in which I could relate-(with love.). Then I found Carters dachshunds and I decided to email Lynda and see if she had any long haired reds available. She immediately answered me with a picture of one week old Zoe! We got weekly picture updates via the internet and Lynda answered all my questions with patience and kindness. To make a long story short, we ended up driving to North Carolina to pick Zoe up 9 weeks later! (We obviously love to drive!) Zoe is amazing! People flock to her where ever we take her and she is so well adjusted and friendly! We all-Piper included!- love her very much. She is very smart, as cute as can be and very sweet-we couldn't ask for a better addition to our family! Thanks Lynda!"

"Lynda's dogs have been a pleasure to show, they have a great temperament and are very outgoing. I have done great in the ring with Gismoe, (mini Wire) placing 4th in the group with him. Thanks Lynda for giving me the chance of showing them to their Championship. Will do it again anytime."

"From the first time we saw Yanni on your site we just had to have him. When he arrived, we took him to the vet for a quick check before we put him in with my older female. He was just as you had stated he would be and more. He cleared the vet's exam with flying colors. I have never seen a solid black before and I am sure that he will make a very special therapy dog for my work with the children and elders which I visit. Your pictures of him did not do him justice, He was more than I expected. I would trust you again to pick a dog for this work. You surely do know your dogs. He has already finished the puppy classes with flying colors. Thanks again, Jacque."- Jacque M. Brooks, OR
