Candy Spelling--mother of Tori--is one smart lady. She enlisted the aid of her soft-coated Wheaten Terrier to select the real estate agent best suited (and apparently, best smelling) to sell their $150 million dollar mansion in Holmby Hills, an exclusive neighborhood in Los Angeles.

 

She had her security bring the dog into the room every time she met one of the candidate agents and watched how the dog reacted.

If Madison didn't like them, Spelling crossed them off the list.

Candy was married to legendary television producer Aaron Spelling--"Beverly Hills 90210,""Charlie's Angels," "Dynasty," "Love Boat," "Melrose Place"--until he passed away in 2006.

Their three-story mansion was built in 1991 in the French chateau style. It is a sprawling 56,000 square feet sitting atop 4.6 acres of land. With more than 100 rooms it is considered the largest home in Los Angeles.
