Dear Teresa,
I'm sorry it has taken us so long to send
you pictures, my wife and I have just been so busy with
the nice weather playing with the kids and the dogs
before the winter sets in. I've enclosed a picture of
Tyson and Ali that are just about 5 months old now. We
got them in August and they have been the best addition
to our family, since our two boys. These dogs have the
greatest disposition and are phenomenal with the kids!
Thank you so much!

Tyson and Ali

Hi Theresa,
Just thought I would send some pictures of Casey. he is such a
wonderful addition to our family and we love him so much. These
are our fall pictures of him. Jack and Casey are the best of
friends. They do every thing together. They walk three miles every
day. Casey is so loving and such a people dog. He will sit by us
all day if we just petted him. no problem.......just pet me. He
also sucks on his bed which is really funny. He still paws it and
holds it in his mouth. He greets me every day at the door when I
come from work with his blanket in his mouth. This must be a
retriever thing!!! We love him so much an are enjoying every
minute with him. He's so much fun to be with. loves to run in the
back yard...loves to play retrieve. loves to sit at the front door
and watch the people go by. You and your dogs really create the
BEST puppies. ( I still call him my puppy).

I hope all is
well with you and you and your family and all your dogs are well.
You are the best Theresa. You should be very proud of your work
with your dogs. I wish you the best. I probably will send
Christmas pictures next.
with best regards. Sharon
Hi Terri,
It is almost been a year since we got our little Riley. He has grown
to be a wonderful dog.
Here are some pictures of him. As you can see, he is quite spoiled
here with us. He has been going to classes at Connecticut K9 and is
doing excellent.
Do you have any room for Riley the week of July 5th thru July 12th?
We are going to be at Misquamicut for the week
and I was wondering if you has any room to watch him for the week.
Thank you,
Mark Pavao
We are writing as proud parents of one of Terry's Goldies.
Just a little history: Bill & I live only 10
minutes away from her kennel but had not heard of her operation
until we began searching the web this winter for a new pup.
We saw that she boarded dogs as well so our old
Lab spent 2 weeks with her in March. We had always had family &
friends care for him while on vacations, but as he aged, it became
too much of an imposition. You can read about that great experience
on her website. We were so impressed with Terry's care and clean
facility that we then decided to get our pup from her.

Maggie
We brought Maggie home Memorial Day weekend at 7
weeks, & she has become a wonderful addition to our family. I would
bore you with all the adjectives I could use to describe her, so
I'll try to be brief! Maggie is very lovable without being clingy
or needy. She is friendly towards other dogs & people, and loves
children. She is smart & observant, & she learns quickly. We just
graduated from Puppy Kindergarten & start Basic Manners in 2 weeks
(all positively based training). Is she being a puppy & getting
into trouble? Oh yeah! But we're also simply amazed at how fast
she's learning to be civilized! She sits & waits at the door until
we say it's ok to go out. She hasn't had an accident in weeks. She
comes, sits, & is learning down. She loves to fetch & most always
drops it when asked.
She enjoys the beach so we go a couple of times
most every weekend. She's just starting to go in water over her
head.
Another part of her personality we admire is her
confidence. Nothing scares her. A loud truck passing by,
fireworks, lightening, you name it. She'll stop & look, quietly
check it out, then get back to what she was doing. In puppy
kindergarten they have about 10 minutes of socializing where the
pups have free play together. On the first day, lots of pups just
sat or crawled under their owner's chairs. Not Maggie, she was out
exploring & meeting everyone with her head up & tail wagging.
See, I told you I would bore you!
Anyway, we are glad we found Terry. We could
tell right away that this more than a business for her. She loves
her dogs & wants her customers to be happy. Living close by, we
were able to pick out Maggie when she was 2 weeks old. We would
visit, of course at a distance until it was safe, every weekend.
Terry saw this as important & would be patient when we wanted to
visit twice on a weekend!
So Bob, feel free to email us for more
info. I'm looking at Maggie nestled up next to Bill on the floor.
I know it's a big decision to try & find just the right dog. They
become such an important part of our lives. Hopefully, these pics
come out.
Dear Terry,
thank you so much for taking such good care of Lobo while we were away
last summer for over a month. We missed him a lot, but we were happy
to know that he was in your caring hands, and in the company of his
good friends Honey, Sugar and the other dogs, playing and having a
good time, as in the past summers and Christmas vacations! Even though
we have to drive 100 miles each way from Lexington, Mass., all the way
to Rhode Island, we know it is worthy because of the wonderful care
you give him, and every time we get him back, he looks happy and in a
very good shape and relaxed. And we are so grateful to you for having
picked him for us when he was a little adorable fuzzy puppy three
years ago.
He is such a lovely and beautiful golden retriever, with a sweet and
playful personality, and our nine-year old son Edoardo absolutely
adores him - and so do we and does everybody who meets our dear Lobo.
You can be very proud that such a great dog comes from your kennel
farm!
Many thanks again and all the best,
Deborah, Enrico & Edoardo
hello terry ~ it has been such a long time. I hope you are well and
enjoying summer and all the craziness that you had planned ~ weddings
and puppies and building ~ you always have your plate full.
well barnabus and eloise are two years old today and I couldn't let
their birthday pass without sending you all our love with tons of hugs
and kisses.
The pups (I will always call them that) are so wonderful and make me
laugh and smile every day. They have even become very well-behaved if
you can believe that one. They do still enjoy a good nap on a chair
or sneaking up on the couch but hell, I like that too.
Barnabus still loves to suck the edge of his bed/blanket/quilt and
when he gets really excited, he drags it all around the living room.
Joe and I sing that it is 'Bussie on Parade' and he gets all wiggly
and so proud. He is the sweetest dog you can imagine.

Eloise is also as sweet and soft spirited but she is a little devil
and is smart enough to try to conceal her naughtiness. She does
something wrong and when I catch her, she turns her back and ignores
me in hopes of me going away. How do I get mad? There is a real lack
of discipline but thankfully they are very well behaved and are even
better when there are carrots or blueberries around
.
I hope some day soon our paths can cross as we all miss seeing you but
I also want you to meet these fabulous, sweet and kind creatures ~
they are our absolute joys ~ I cannot tell you enough.
I hope all is well and you are happy and healthy.
Take care and talk soon,
Chelsea
Dear Terry,
Just wanted to send you an updated picture of
Dakota. She is already 15 lbs and doing wonderful. The vet said she sure is
one beautiful dog and has commended you as a breeder. She didn't even know of
you, but now she does. She is so lovable and smart. For a first dog
experience, she is tremendous. She certainly had no problem transitioning to
her new home. I can't even remember what life was like before her! You can
definitely tell she came from a loving home! Thanks for taking such good care
of her. When we have travel plans in the future we plan on having her board
with you if there is availability, so I am sure you will see her again!
Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Bonnie Sawyer

Hi Terry,
Thank you for taking such good care of Coal.
We could see that you kept a clean kennel when we visited but
didn't realize just how clean until Coal came home. When he
stayed at other kennels, he'd come home with a strong doggy
smell. Not this time...he was with you for 2 weeks and no odor!
You were concerned that Coal wouldn't go out
the first
couple of days & had accidents. I just want you to know that now
that he's home, he's been spending a lot of time outdoors with no
accidents. And we can see the result of 2 weeks of no doggie
bones. Coal's now cutting back on his calorie intake & getting
carrots for snacks in order to keep his trim figure. This should
help with his arthritis.
I thought you'd like to hear that Dr. Turco
spoke highly of you & your breeding practices. We can't wait to
pick out our new puppy. I know we can't see them, but we'd love
an email
just to know they've arrived. We're like expectant parents!
Thanks again,
Jill & Bill
Hi Theresa,
Here are some pictures of Casey's first birthday party. Riley and
Bosco came for cake!!!. I can't tell you how happy we
are with
Casey. It has been a wonderful 11 months with him He is such a
sweetie. You should be very proud of Beaches and Lucky ..they
produced a great litter. Not only is Casey handsome but also so
smart and full of fun. He loves other dogs and he loves people. He
has become a wonderful addition to our family. we love him so much.
I can't wait to meet Tess, the Iannoti's puppy. I will certainly
send anyone who wants a great dog to you, not only for your
retrievers but I'm sure all your puppies are great dogs because of
you and your love for your dogs. When we camp this summer at
highland orchards I hope to bring my handsome lad to see you. Take
care . Good luck with your up-coming litters. talk
to you soon.
Sharon

Hi Terry,
Hope all is well with you. I have been meaning to write & send some
pictures, but our camera was giving us some problems so we ended up
getting a new one. I just wanted to tell you that Lola is doing great.
She is such a good puppy. She is not totally housebroken, but is
working on it & is almost there. She slept through the night the 2nd
night I got her & has never had an accident in her crate. We all love
her so much! Even my oldest son who just met her as he just came home
from college for the week is already attached to her. My daughters
were so surprised when I brought her home. They love to play with her.
I was a little nervous about how our other dog would react to her, but
he just loves her. They play together all the time & he is actually
very protective of her. I have to tell you this is the first time we
have ever even paid for a dog, but she is worth every penny. If you
ever need a reference as far as the puggles go, just let me know.
Well, I hope you like the pictures & thanks again
for everything.

Hi Terry.
It's been a long time since I wrote. I'm the lady with the two
Chinese girls who came last March and picked up "Abby". I just
wanted you to know, that amongst the many things this holiday for
which I am thankful, you and Abby are at the top of the list. I
promise to send pictures soon. She's probably between 55 and 60 lbs.
Has slightly wavy oatmeal colored hair and is very, very loving. She
is, without a doubt, my best friend. We did an obedience course
which just ended and I have much work ahead. Admittedly, Abby is
easily distracted, but that will sort itself out with age and
exposure to lots of different experiences. She started out very
frightened of the car, but now races to beat me to the garage door
to go wherever my adventures lead.
Anyway, I just wanted you to know we were thinking about you and
appreciate what you do. You are raising some lovely, healthy animals
who are making great companions to us all.
Best wishes during the holidays (and I promise I'll bet the girls to
do the technology thing and send you photos...she's gorgeous!).
Gratefully,
Gail (Ratte')
P.S. How's Mercy??? Remember, she was my inspiration!
Hi Theresa,
Hope all is well with you and all the puppies.
They are all so sweet. I can't tell you how lucky we feel the day
we met you and your golden puppies. When Jack saw casey it was all
over. He loves this dog so much. We have had many(4) dogs over
fourty uears , but never one like casey. He is such a beautiful
dog. Everyone that meet him loves him. We have a mom at Emily's
scholl that is looking for a golden puppy and there are three
mom's with golden retrievers. When the girl asked about their
breeders they all told her to contact me because their goldens
were a little crazy and casey is not. I gave here your website to
contact you. I hope she did. We love casey and again thatnk you
for everything and....... for taking such good care of him while
we were in florida. If you ever have a person who is onterested in
your puppies and want s to talk to someone who has had one of your
puppies please give them to me.We love him so m uch. He has made
our lives so much fun in the past 7 months that we've had him. I
will send you a picture of him at Christmas. with the tree and
presents. Keep in touch. I know you are very busy.
Sharon
HI TERRY;
INSTEAD OF WESLEY, WE THINK HE LOOKS
MORE LIKE AN OLIVER - SO WE NAMED HIM OLIVER!
HE IS A JOY AND IS GETTING ALONG WELL
WITH HIS SISTER TESS!
HE IS ABSOLUTELY RAVENOUS WITH THE 1/3
CUP OF DRY FOOD 3 TIMES A DAY, BUT I READ THAT WE KEEP HIM ON THAT
UNTIL HE IS 3 MONTHS OLD - PERHAPS IT IS BECAUSE HE WANTS TO GET IT
BEFORE HIS SISTERS AND BROTHERS DO?
HE KNOWS HIS NAME AND NEXT IS THE SIT
COMMAND! HE IS REALLY WELL CRATE TRAINED AND HAS ONLY MISSED 3 TIMES
SO FAR! HE LIKES TO CHEW - THAT'S FOR SURE! WE HAVE PLENTY OF TOYS
TO STICK INTO HIS MOUTH INSTEAD!HA!HA!
THE NU VET CAME ON FRIDAY ( HE DIDN'T
MISS 1 ONE DAY), AND I HAVE HIS FIRST VET APPOINMENT ALREADY
SCHEDULED!
WE LOVE HIM!

Dear Terry,
I just wanted take
a few minutes to update you on our Golden, Molly and how happy we
are with her. It has been a year since we came to Cheyenne Farm
Kennel and picked her out. Molly celebrated her first birthday on
August 18th. Her disposition is wonderful. She is kind
and loves to snuggle with us and our other Golden, Bailey. Molly
and Bailey get along wonderfully. Molly is incredibly smart, learns
commands easily and loves to watch baseball on TV. Molly is
wonderful with children. She is on the smaller side of the breed
spec, about 55 pounds and very well put together, with large, sturdy
paws and no hip issues. I often get comments on how well put
together she is. She looks like Beaches and has a beautiful coat
and teeth. Like her mom, Beaches, she loves the outdoors and
playing in water.
When we were
looking for a second Golden to add to our home, we went to many
different breeders and were so disappointed with them. The moment
we saw Cheyenne Farm Kennel, we knew that we would find our dog
here. I have never seen such a clean facility or met a breeder
that cared more about her dogs. When I look at Molly, I am grateful
to you for what you do. We all love her very much.
Kindest regards to
you, Holly, Beaches, Lucky and everyone else at Cheyenne Farm
Kennel,
Anna Rothenberg
Good morning Terry ~

Barnabus
Joe and I want to thank you for all
you did to make our experience with Cheyenne Farm Kennels such a
positive one. We knew very early on that we made the right
decision to go with you and your facility. We have always been
confident with you as our first choice in breeders. Your
professionalism and kindness will make it easy for us to recommend
you to others for years to come.
You were so kind to allow us to be a
part of our puppies' life from the moment they were born.
It was such a thrill for us to have the chance to watch the
puppies grow and develop from Day 1.
From the start, you were very thorough
in explaining such things as feeding and shots, vet information
and even potty training tips to us. When we brought the pups home
and had questions, you were always on call to help, not matter how
random the questions might have been. As first time puppies
owners, we always felt we were in good hands with you only a phone
call away.
After spending so much time at your
facility, it is very reassuring to know that we can board our dogs
with you as well. The kennels are clean and fresh and I know our
dogs would be taken care of as if they were your own. You run a
first rate operation (and I look forward to their next grooming
session from Holly).
Kudos to you and Cheyenne Farm Kennels
for providing such a wonderful experience as well as providing us
with two of the kindest dogs we could have wished for.
Thank you again,
