Not only that, but one of the dogs had obviously been abused by its previous owner-- she will bite you, sometimes without provocation.

We took one of them to NorCal several days ago, to buy a muzzle, and the only muzzle they had they had to use for their grooming clients! The manager was supposed to call us back, but never did! NOT a good way to run a business. We will never use them again, ever.
