Book Review: Marley and Me by John Grogan
This was a lovely heartwarming story about a couple and their crazy Labrador, Marley. Some of their training or lack of was not great. I feel like they gave up too easily and I wasn't much keen on the choke chain idea but I guess it could have been worse... It could have been a prong or shock collar.
The main area that worried me was Marley's reaction to storms. If he's scared enough that he's mutilating himself then something more really needs to be done. I did love that despite his behaviour they did keep him when they had kids - the No 1 reason pets are dumped (I could be wrong about this statistic) - and it's also one of the most accurate book to movie adaptations I've seen. Also the writing is beautiful and really drew me in, I rarely cry but the end did bring tears to my eyes.
