Again, another story about how a dog reflects the growth of a family. In this case, this is a dog whose lovable nature belies its troublesome behavior. The Grogan family received Marley as a puppy, and there were times they considered removing him from the household. They tried various methods to curb his behavior, such as obedience school-only for him to be expelled. A good read, but again-sad because (ultimately) a dog’s life can only be so long, even if memories live on for longer.
