Say hello to Marley. When we rescued Marley, he was barely able to walk, his fur was
so matted we were not even sure what breed he was. Marley was so afraid he would
lunge at the people in the shelter. Marley's only hope was for someone to rescue him
from the shelter. They said he was un-adoptable - because he was aggressive. Boy
were they wrong!

When we picked up Marley we took him straight to the vets where we sedated him and began
the 2 hour process of trying to remove the mats, urine and feces that covered his body. Some
of the areas were rock hard. Below are the photos of the vets clipping and cleaning this poor
little man.

Above is Marley's back end - one
of his legs was hidden in the
mats - pulled up to his body.

Above is one of the many
solid pieces of matted fur
removed from Marley - over
1 1/2 pounds of mats and
filth encrusted this little guy!

Below is Marley at the hospital after being shaved down - THIS is the vicious
aggressive dog that was deemed un-adoptable at the shelter. The poor little guy
was just scared and in horrible pain!

And below is Marley today!! In fact we have put his after and before pictures side-by-side so
you can see his transformation. Look what a little love and care can do - a diamond in the
rough for sure!!
Below is what his foster mom had to say about Marley!
"Look at Marley now! He has transformed into a beautiful toy poodle with all of the
wonderful poodle attributes to go along with his good looks! Marley cannot decide
what he loves most, snuggling on a lap or zooming around amusing himself with
his toys! He has also turned into Mr. Personality and loves to meet new people. He
used to be very shy and afraid but not any more! He is funny, smart and still such
a puppy at heart. The only thing Marley needs now is a new home!" ~Sue~
UPDATE: MARLEY HAS FOUND HIS FOREVER HOME!
