Are these free clinics normally very busy? When is the best time to go (towards the end, or towards the beginning)? What is the average wait time (for those of you that have been before)?

Hold crap!I arrived at 6:03 with one of my dogs and the line was out the front of the bay, around the length of the side and all the way around the back of the building. When I drove by at 7:40 (the clinic was to go from 6-7:30) there were still people and animals in the bay area. I am curious how many animals were vaccinated.
I will take my dog to the clinic or vet for her shots.

We got there at 6:15 and waited, only to be told that the vet would be leaving at 7:30 and they would have to cut the line short. If I had to guess, I'd say more folks didn't get their shots than did. It was the most people I've seen at one of these clinics.
