Marley and Me is a fun read about a Labrador retriever that would not obey, was filled with emotional problems, and how through ups and downs, both owners and pet grew together, even through being kicked out of obedience school, they grew together; Marley & Me is a heartwarming story that will make you laugh and understand your own dog better.

304 pages, Marley & Me is a hardcover written by Johan Gorgan, published by William Morrow, measuring 8.4 x 5.3 x 1.2 inches and ships at 8.8 ounces.

For a newly wed couple of West Palm Beach looking to have children, the idea of a Labrador retriever sounded like a good way to get prepared, but what Jenny and John Grogan discovered was a spoiled, naughty and extremely hyperactive dog that even ate an 18-karat gold necklace.

Columnist John Gorgan tells the story of how a much loved but incorrigible Marley makes a mess of things on a constant basis, making the reader laugh throughout, even threatening to destroy their marriage with the arrival of children, to later recover both equilibrium and enough humor to write a whole book; that others may laugh as well.

Marley & Me is a wonderfully humorous book that dog owners will enjoy; discovering a whole new realm of perspective on dog handling that they can really understand on a personal level.
