Good Bye And Good Luck Marley

[carlypawparlour]

Today has been such a sad day for me. We took Marley to his new home today and it was stressful for us both.

I more than fell in love with Marley and I would have kept him if it was not for the fact that his new owner needed a very trusting Greyhound that would accept Jack Russell pups part time.

I have nursed him and bathed him and given him endless love since he has been in my care and I have watched a nervous, hungry hound that had terrible sores and worms turn into a very trusting loyal friend who always made me smile.

If I didn’t know where Marley was I could just look out of my kitchen window at him chucking his toys around by himself or dragging his bed out of the door in the process tripping over it and falling over, he would just get up again and drag it harder out the door to sit on in the garden ( he did have a bed outside to sun himself on but always preferred his choice of bed) such a mischievous boy ;D ;D.

I feel quite empty and sad today and tonight as Marley is not chucking his toys around and believe it or not but just having 4 Greyhounds in my home it feels empty!

However, Marley has gone to a lovely home where I think he will be very spoiled. Although they couldn’t believe that I brought him his suit case ;D


The photos below we took on Sunday.

You have worked wonders with him Carly and the rehoming process at Castledon is second to none so you know he is going to a good loving home and as you have seen his character build you know what joy he is going to be to his new owners, Well done to you and Good Luck to Marley in his new home !!
Love
Babs ,Paul & The happy trio.

Thank you, I wouldnt do anymore fostering as im not cut out for it. My home is quite empty now. .

I am trying to move on but am feeling quite down about it all.

I bet Marley is just worrying about when he is getting his next meal lol. ;D

Jan, at least you are giving Keith a chance. Keith will not go anywhere otherwise as he is proberly never pushed forward and you know how I feel about other rehoming kennels. Im sure he will be fine. x

I can confirm that Marley is now back home with me after the jack russel was hanging off of poor Marleys lip.

Whilst I love all breeds of dogs. I hope the next time the owners choose to go out and BUY pups maybe they may consider a rescue next time seen as Marley did nothing wrong even when the nasty thing was hanging from his face.

This poor little boy does not know whether he is coming or going as he has gone for 4 visits and this time it was meant to be his forever stay. Although I think he is quite pleased to be back as he is back to flying round my garden with his toys in his mouth
