I thought I’d provide an update on Marley (previously Sam) who has been with me for 5 wonderful years now.
He really is the best decision I have ever made.
From the timid, skinny dog he once was to the bouncy confident fluffball he is now –
It’s been a real joy to be part of this journey and watch him grow.
In anticipation of welcoming Marley into my home, I bought toys a plenty, on the assumption that he would be playful,
needing that mental stimulation as previous Collie’s in the family did.
I threw the ball and he didn’t even follow it with his eyes let alone his feet!
For the first year or so I was playing fetch with myself!
Now, as the photos show he has reverted back to a puppy!
He not only chases the ball when I throw it, he also entertains himself, launching it up in the air if I’m distracted having a chat -he’s brilliant entertainment! He is also the best sidekick I could ask for, still coming to work with me every day, keeping me company.
He gives the best cuddles.. apart from when he thinks he is a lapdog which proves a little awkward considering his size!
Everyone loves this big softy, as do I with every fibre of my being.
Thank you for introducing him to my life, and for all the brilliant work you do.
Here’s to the next 5 years with this wonderful weirdo.
All the best, Jess
