Synopsis
Marley is a hyperactive, intractable, mischievous, and entirely lovable yellow Lab, acquired by John Grogan and his wife because they thought having a dog would prepare them for parenthood. Not only did Marley take over their lives, but when children did eventually come along, Marley retained his place as firstborn and supremely difficult child. Grogan's very amusing chronicle of Marley's life and adventures is a first-rate memoir of a memorable pet.

    I read this book straight through, only pausing to wipe my eyes or blow my nose. An incredible good read that leaves one looking at life and love in a new light. This book reminds us that we are all indeed mortal. That our time on earth is brief and temporary. Every day is precious and should be cherished. Although I am a dog owner and dog lover, I found myself examining all of the relationships in my life after reading this book. We way to often judge, and find character flaws in the people around us, often the ones we love the most. What we should be doing is loving them.......unconditionally. A truly great read, even if you don't own a dog!

    John Grogan writes about his relationship with his dog Marley; but it is so much more than that. Marley is big, goofy and sometimes destructive, but Grogan reaches somewhere most of us can't go to understand and love this beautiful creature for what he is -- a loyal companion who returns Grogan's love unconditionally. The relationship between Grogan and his wife as they start their marriage and family with the dog named Marley is hillarious. Marley runs wild through an upscale outdoor cafe in Boca knocking down people and tables as he goes, he tears up the house and gets kicked out of dog school...but he seems to understand the loss of their baby as he stands so quietly with his head down as Jenny hugs him and sobs. The book is well written, moves quickly along and ends up to be so much more than a book about a dog. It's about life, dedication, loyalty and promises.
