This morning, was a sad morning for us as we transported Marley late last night to Pam. It was relatively quiet in our house this morning, I think the kids are drained from crying last night.
We saw how much of an impact Mr. Marley made on our family as we packed up his bag to send him on, to continue his journey. Broghan was sobbing at the dinner table for over an hour, and Josie cried the entire trip to Allentown to meet Pam. While at our 'drop off' point, Pam and I sat discussing Marley and explaining to Josie that Marley will see a Vet today for his exam and a Specialist tomorrow....in turn he may be able to see within the next week or so. Josie's saddness was eased a bit. After seeing the kids' reactions to his departure, it only showed yet again what a wonderful dog Marley is.

He was SO excited to get in the car and go on our trip last night. We can only hope he did well on the ride with Pam to their house and did well when they arrived as he met his brother, Ghost! I had a good 'talk' with Marley yesterday, telling him all about his new brother and how much fun he is going to have. Especially once he can see again. We are excited to hear from Pam later today to find out Marley's weight, he has lost quite a bit of weight in the last three weeks, or at least you can see he is slimming. Hopefully, by tomorrow, Pam will be able to blog about his vet appointments and let us all know when his surgery will be. As I have written for the last 3 weeks, I cannot tell you all enough how awesome this guy is! He is a gentle, sweet soul who deserves to have his vision. And once he has his 'forever home' he will truly make a great member of your family and be a best friend to everyone! As he did in his short time here with us. Thank you to those who have been following the first leg of his journey. Pam will continue to let us know how the next round is going!

  1. Just to have a comment very quickly, Marley was a perfect gentleman for the ride to our home. He met his brother Ghostie in the school parking lot near our home and it took a few minutes, but they were soon walking around together. They are wiped out from their recent walk together this morning and we are about to take Marley to the vet for his wellness check up. I am excited to see his weight as well. I will post a proper blog entry when we return.

    Lots to tell already and it hasn't even been 24 hours.
