They have a large selection, but I hate most of the staff. The first time my wife and I went, we called ahead of time to make sure a dog was still available since we were driving from Madison. The woman we spoke to said he was, but when we got there he all of a sudden wasn't. We then looked at another dog since we drove all that way. It was pretty obvious one of the women didn't want us to adopt a dog. She tried suggesting he was a pit bull, and didn't believe we had permission from our landlord to have a dog. He ended up getting adopted by someone else.

So one day I went back by myself. They wouldn't allow me to adopt a dog without my wife there. They told me she could come in alone and adopt him since I already met him. When my wife called, they said they had no idea who I was, even though I had just been there an hour earlier... Again, they have a good selection, but their staff is pretty much a joke, unfortunately.
