I read another copy of this book in 2007. This is what I wrote about this book after I read it...
In his early days of marriage, the author adopts a Labrador retriever puppy. This dog, Marley, becomes his constant companion throughout the years he and his wife are raising their family. John Grogan does for Labrador retrievers what Jon Katz did for border collies – which is to bring out what is distinct and special in each respective breed of dog. I found Grogan’s book much more fun to read. In addition to telling what makes Marley so unique, Grogan has a way of telling a story that makes the tale absolutely hilarious. Here is a book which grabs the reader and has him both laughing, crying, and nodding his head in understanding as Marley goes rollicking through life. My only complaint about the book is that I felt it should have ended a few chapters earlier. Then, at the very end of the book, there was a teaser with no resolution! I found that annoying, but it did not take away from my great enjoyment of this book.
