Marley amd Me John Grogan
Brand New Paperback
The heartwarming and unforgettable story of a family in the making and the
wondrously neurotic dog who taught them what really matters in life John
and Jenny were just beginning their life together. They were young and
in love, with a perfect little house and not a care in the world. Then
they brought home Marley, a wiggly yellow furball of a puppy. Life
would never be the same. Marley quickly grew into a barreling,
ninety-seven-pound streamroller of a Labrador retriever, a dog like no
other. He crashed through screen doors, gouged through drywall, flung
drool on guests, stole women's undergarments, and ate nearly everything
he could get his mouth around, including couches and fine jewelry.
Obedience school did no good— Marley was expelled. Neither did the
tranquilizers the veterinarian prescribed for him with the
admonishment, "Don't hesitate to use these." And yet Marley's
heart was pure. Just as he joyfully refused any limits on his behavior,
his love and loyalty were boundless, too. Marley shared the couple's
joy at their first pregnancy, and their heartbreak over the
miscarriage. He was there when babies finally arrived and when the
screams of a seventeen-year-old stabbing victim pierced the night.
Marley shut down a public beach and managed to land a role in a
feature-length movie, always winning hearts as he made a mess of
things. Through it all, he remained steadfast, a model of devotion,
even when his family was at its wit's end. Unconditional love, they
would learn, comes in many forms. Is it possible for humans to discover the key to happiness through a bigger-than-life, bad-boy dog? Just ask the Grogans.
