I've had my Dolly for 2 years now. She housetrained very easily. She does however love to get into the kitchen trash, so I have a baby gate up, so she can't get into the kitchen anymore. I've had a lot of problems with her ears, she gets nasty yeast infections in them, and it has cost me a lot of money to get it cleared up. (Normal with a floppy earred dog). she has a really annoying bark, but I'm lucky cause she doesn't use it unless absolutely necessary. She's great with my children, never has attempted to bite any of them. She does like to chew on blankets, not to tear them up, but to just salivate all over it. There's nothing worse then climbing into your bed, pulling up the cover and having a slimey, wet chunk touch your face...GROSS! But...I would never get rid of her, cause she is too much of a lover. I do have to put her outside in the back whenever I feed my 1 year old, cause she steals his food right out of his hand or mouth. We've just learned to work around her faults. She's not the smartest dog either, she can't do tricks, other than sit, and that's for food. But All-in-All the best dog that I have ever had.
