Casey yellow lab we had to give away terrible biter
Sandy yellow lab that we gave away because we couldn't house break her (Are you listening Tucker) She was bad, someone gave her to me and totally lied about her. She made Marley of Marley and me seem catatonic. Like Marley with none of Marley's good points.
