About This Book
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.
