Marley - English Bull Terrier X, Dog (2 Years)

Marley is an energetic boy who has unfortunately been returned to us after a year as his owner's circumstances have changed.

He is friendly and eager to please, however he does need some firm handling and training as he can be boisterous.

Marley is very playful with other dogs and, if not handled properly, can become a bit of a handful!

Marley would like a home where he isn't left on his own for too long and a new owner who has lots of time for him. He is used to children, but may be too lively for babies or toddlers.

Marley is just a big boy who loves to get out and about.....soaks up any commands that he is given...really tries to listen and do as hes told....i think he has been used to voice commands as he responds well to a firm voice....just wants to have fun but not sure how to go about gettin it....some training would benefit this young man..either that or an owner who can be firm, consistent and loving... This dog has the makings of a good family pet x

Beautiful boy..... waggy tail Marley had his tail nipped as he was passing by another dogs kennel today...he was quite upset by that and had a sad little face until he was shown his poorly boy treats....then he soon became his normal happy self.....Marley never retaliated....this boy is a great family dog...so loving and absolutely thrives on fuss....Marley is a babe....but looks like a big mans dog.....two for the price of one with this young man..x:lol:

Beautiful Bull terrier face...very appealing...knows how to use it too8) Marley saw the vet today for his jab and to have a check on his tail....all good....but the vet said it would have been painful...bless him.....He is now excellent at coming out of his kennel and all the gates...the best yet...very very loving and attentive....Cute just isnt a scrumptious enough word for Marley....He is walking loads better on the lead...

What a looker!

Marley is a lovely boy who walks well on the lead. He is a quick learner, and a strong lad. He has improved immensley on the lead since he came in. Marley has such a beautiful face and such beautiful eyes.

Marley would be well suited to someone who can be firm when need be, as Kim stated above. But I have no doubt that he would make someone a lovely companion or a loving family pet.

A beautiful Christmas Day morning dog for me! Marley was my second walking mate and didn't he let me know, he must be clean as he pulled straight from his kennell to the first peeing place!!! then looked up in the air as if so say, boy I needed that and you kept me waiting!!! Warm hot dog sausage was dispensed and we were buddies, off we went at quite a pace, he loves to be out and with you, he loves to interact with his head going from side to side to understand you and hope you understand him. Marley really is a handsome boy and appears so intelligent, also very loving but expects nothing back, gets sooo excitied when shown affection and can kiss so hard that he knocks your head back, what a fella!

Here's a short video of Marley saying hello to the puppies who are with us at the moment, he can hear them from his kennel and is always keen to pop up and pass a few moments with them, watch that tail wag!!! well done Marley x

To me, Marley's kind of a perfect dog in that he's playful, curious, loving -so much so that sometimes I have to take my glasses off with him; either that or have him 'kiss' them off -but also calm when you want him to be. If I sit down on a bench (Exhasuted after all the playing) he sits there with me (On my lap when he can get away with it) and just watches the world go by. Very calm, very thoughtful. Maybe it's just me reading too much into things, but I swear there's a lot going on inside that powerful head of his.

Remember this fella! well here's Marley again in the playpen, such a handsome fella, he walks so proud and has loads of energy, loves his walks and will keep anyone fit who can keep up with him, really lovable lad x

Marley has found his forever home!!

Marley is the perfect addition to our family, he has settled in so well and so quick. Marley absolutely adores the children and they were so excited when they got home and saw Marley wandering around the house . He loves going out in the car and tries to stick his head out of the window. We took him for a walk along the river into Bewdley and Marley was fascinated by the ducks and swans and wanted to play with them, we let him off the lead and he was an angel, he listened when called and never wandered off too far in front. Marley is a completely different dog since we got him home and we are looking forward to lots of happy times with him. His hair is starting to grow back very slowly and his cough has now gone. He has a favorite place in the house which is my daughters bed, snuggling her under the duvet! They look so sweet when they are both asleep after a hard afternoon playing and running about
We will be back soon so Marley can visit all his friends at FDR!!!

and its all Marleys!! Love this post. Its so good to read how happy he and his new family are. Thank you for taking the time and passing on the happiness!

He definitely looks well settled already and has even managed to claim the sofa! What a smooth operator . Hope all goes well for you and him, he certainly deserves a lovely forever home.
