Book Review of Marley and Me : Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog

Marley and Me : Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog

Helpful Score: 1


This is a true story and one of the best and funniest dog books I have ever read. Marley was a purebred Labrador retriever, but a huge, strong, saliva-spewing, tail-whipping, property-destroying, goofy, lovable oaf. Read about how he ran off, pulling his master and mistress' table behind him at an outdoor restaurant because he wanted to get at an ultra-pampered and high class female poodle on the other side. (He almost made it.) Read about how even a steel cage could not contain him and keep him from wreaking havoc in the house during thunderstorms. And read about how he completely captured the hearts of his owners.
