I don’t remember the Jack Russell’s but I remember when they built the CCB branch at Wakefield Shopping Center at New Bern Ave. and Sunnybrook. It was very busy all the time,

The Jack Russell ads came towards their final years as CCB. There was an ad of the dog biting the CCB tarp off the SunTrust logo.
