They usually only had a couple of dogs mostly pitbull mix! I couldn't believe it when I saw a labradoodle as we had been checking out standard poodle or poodle mix dogs. Needless to say we were "camped out" the the parking lot at 11:45 AM - they opened at

"Good Golly Miss Molly!!!!"

The first 24 hours( minus a couple) She peed on my living room carpet Tore up rug in kitchen Gave me a bloody lip Peed in living room again Walking on leash she alternated between biting the back of my leg or Popster's Threw up inthe back of Popster's SRV........he had it detailed two days ago to the tune of $125.00! Tore up other rug in kitchen Jumped on table after Popster's steak Peed on floor in kitchen Jumped on table to steal newspaper Chewed up dried hydrangea flowers Was found sleeping on the new couch with her head on the new pillow Tugged kitchen rug around again
