Sorry to see this about Marley. Night, night sleep tight Marley. Sending your carers lots of big )))HUGS)))) RIP+

Please dont be sad that I had to leave
Its breaking my heart to see you grieve
You did your best in the shoret tieme I had
So please be happy not sad.

I felt so warm and loved in my carers arms
as I slowly left this eartly land
Then I heard a voice, it was God
And he said "Come on Marley" And held out his hand

From

Marley

God Blessx

What devastating news that poor Marley did not experience love and comfort for longer. I am so sad for him. Where are the photos of him after his coat was shaved and on his comfy bed? I would like to see them.

God bless all of the wonderful people who helped Marley and your kindness to him I am so sad he has gone to the bridge but he knew such love and kindness at the end of his days which would not have been possible without you. Julie x

So so very sorry to hear the sad news but at least Marley was given a name, home and most of all died peacefully in loving arms. RIP Marley xx

2012-09-19 18:01 DogLostMillypod (Chris) - Administrative Volunteer

Rest in peace Marley knowing you have been loved in your final days.
Lovely photos added.xx

2012-09-19 17:55 jobadger

I'm so very sorry you began your journey to the Bridge after such a short time in your new home Marley. You knew you'd found caring people who loved you and that's what matters...you'll meet with them again at the Bridge when the time is right. Sweet dreams old boy - sleep tight. xxx

2012-09-19 17:42 Snowdrop

So sorry you had to go to the bridge so soon after finding your loving home. RIP Marley xx

2012-09-19 15:47 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

What a heartbreaking end - I had hoped he would have some months at least of happiness in his new home, but at least he knew comfort and kindness at the end...if only he could have been found and rehomed sooner. RIP Marley.

2012-09-19 14:32 Unknown

RIP Marley at the bridge....sorry you didn't have longer in your foster home.

2012-09-19 13:41 dewilliams42

2012-09-19 13:24 Sarah W

What a heartbreaking end to this sad story. I'm so pleased that Marley last few days on earth were with loving and caring people, and you can see from the new photo's how he finally found happiness. God Bless you beautiful boy xx

2012-09-19 12:55 mathers22

Must add you look absolutely beautiful Marley - a completely different dog from the one found xx

2012-09-19 12:42 mathers22

RIP Marley I never had the pleasure of meeting you but am absolutely devastated that you couldn't have had a little longer with your new family. Life is so unfair. xx

2012-09-19 12:37 B30

Thank you for the photos Claire, you may need to refresh the page to see them. How lovely that he got to lie in the sunshine and sleep on a comfy bed XX

2012-09-19 12:22 Kathy

Thank you to all the kind people who enabled Marley to have a peaceful end to his life.

2012-09-19 12:02 B30

Oh no, I'm so very sorry to hear this. I had hoped that he would be around for a little while longer. But I'm so glad that he was in someones arms rather than alone. Safe journey to the Bridge sweetie. I'll never forget you XX

2012-09-19 11:42 Claire and Jasper

I am devastated to report that Marley passed away last night. His fosterer has posted the following message on the Many Tears Friends Forum:

'Marleys condition rapidly deteriorated last night & I had to make the sad decision to let him go to Rainbow Bridge

He died in my arms at the vets knowing he was loved & cherished for the short time he was with us.

Marley was a nameless stray with no-one to love him until Sylvia stepped in to help him. He could have died a sad & lonely death at the council pound but instead was given the chance of some comfort in his last days.

Run free Marley, we loved you very much'

He was a beautiful old boy and it's so sad that he had so little time with Julie but thank goodness for the doggie angels who made it possible for him to take that final journey in the arms of a kind person, free of pain (he had painkillers and massage for the arthiritis), no fleas, soothed skin and most importantly with love in his heart again.

I'll see if I can get a recent photo of him uploaded - the transformation was incredible xxxxxx

2012-09-18 22:39 Unknown

Am really thrilled to know Marley has a new home, and will have the company of other canines. He looks lovely now. Presume he was abandoned then to be in such a poor condition when found? Have a great life in your forever home Marley. YOU DESERVE IT:-)xxx Loads of ((((HUGS)))) from mex

2012-09-18 21:03 ClaireC

So glad there are more kind loving people that will go that extra mile to ease this old boy's pain. Thank you to the person who has given him his final home. Good Luck Marley xx

2012-09-18 18:48 pollydog

great news and wonderful that he has a home for as long as he has left. It would be lovely to see a photo of him since his hair cut - he must look like a different dog now!

2012-09-18 13:43 Unknown

Good luck Marley xx

2012-09-18 11:34 Goldenfrodo

I'm so relieved this lovely old boy is in a new home. I've not been able to get him out of my mind ever since I first heard of him.
Be happy sweetheart xxx
Well done to all who made this happen.

2012-09-18 11:29 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Well done everyone...

2012-09-18 08:54 DogLostMillypod (Chris) - Administrative Volunteer

Well done to everyone who made this possible. Enjoy the rest of your life Marley.Clean, full belly, lots of doggie companions and with a nice caring Mom.xx

2012-09-18 08:50 jobadger

I'm so pleased for this old man - thank you all of you who helped get him sorted. Doglost should come with a permanent 'tissue warning'. xx Have a lovely time in you new home Marley. Hugs to all. xx

2012-09-18 08:12 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

I can only repeat what others have said, you've all worked hard to get this boy a loving home for his final days however long/short they are where he will be loved and cared for. Thank you to everyone involved. Enjoy your new life Marley....

2012-09-18 00:41 digbysmum

Be happy in your forever home with all your new pals, dear Marley xxx

2012-09-17 23:05 skippy

So pleased to see Marley has found his forever home. :)) Well done all who've worked so hard to find him such a loving place to be when he needed it most. Good luck old fella - be happy!x

2012-09-17 23:03 Folly

Lovely that he has a name now. Fingers crossed for you Marley and thanks to Julie and all who helped to instrument this ending.

2012-09-17 22:06 mathers22

Well done everyone you've all done a fantastic job in looking after him and finding him a lovely home to spend what time he has left. He will be loved for however long it is - maybe longer than envisaged with all his doggy pals and being loved xx So happy xx

2012-09-17 20:49 B30

This old fella is now called Marley and he's in his new home with eight other doggie companions. His new Mom describes him as a lovely old boy who's enjoying his food and she will keep us updated on how things go.

A HUGE thank you must go to Many Tears Rescue and their wonderful fosterer Julie (Marley's new Mom), Folly who offered him a home (see below) and Wiccaweys Border Collie Rescue who were also prepared to step in and give him a place to go if all else failed and last but certainly not least, Jenny who isn't on here but has worked so hard behind the scenes liaising with people in order to get this result.

It's not clear right now how long Marley will be around, the vet who previously examined him seemed to think it might be only a few weeks but if that's the case then at least they will now be good, pain free weeks in a loving home.

Wishing you lots of happy days in your new home sweetie XX

2012-09-17 13:01 B30

Hopefully this evening Jan

2012-09-17 12:48 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

Have we any further update about this lovely old boy Sue? I keep getting asked!

2012-09-16 17:44 B30

Just to let you know that this boy is safe now and has been collected from the kennels. Will have more details tomorrow.

2012-09-15 20:06 B30

Folly I have emailed you.

2012-09-15 17:23 Folly

Where exactly is Church Gresley? it isn't in my road atlas. I have a committee meeting in the Midlands tomorrow and would be willing to bring him home with me.

2012-09-15 13:50 B30

We are working on this folks and doing our best to see if anyone can take this boy. We'll update on here with any news.

2012-09-14 22:10 Angel

Thanks for the update Jan. Poor boy x

2012-09-14 21:08 Unknown

Irish Retreiver Rescue are faband they take dogs in the UK as well.

2012-09-14 20:35 Pet SearchersJan.Petsearchuk

Just to say that this old boy has been shaved and is feeling much more comfortable. There has been contact with one of the Retriever rescues but I'm not sure which one. If anyone would like further info then please contact Crowfoot Kennels where he is at present on 07928014873. No doubt he would be better in a quiet home due to his age and condition (I believe he has a stomach mass).

2012-09-13 22:21 jobadger

Oh my goodness - where is this old lad now? I do hope he's more comfortable. He may have gone missing from an elderly person............

2012-09-13 20:29 viv.y

My heart goes out to this lovely boy - I am sure Golden Retriever Rescue will help out - but if not I WILL!!!

2012-09-13 17:08 DogLostJayne - Founder Doglost.

Tx Folly...

2012-09-13 16:58 Angel

I can only repeat what others have already said. I hope this poor dog is / has already had a nice bath and hair cut which will no doubt make him feel a lot better. Who's looking after him?

2012-09-13 16:44 Folly

Poor, poor boy. I have just contacted Golden Retriever rescue about him. I'm sure the lady will be in touch. I hope he has not been abandoned but from the state of him, that looks likely. Someone will take him in and love him. Me if necessary!

2012-09-13 14:38 mathers22

OMG poor lad thank god someone's found him.x

2012-09-13 13:56 lesleyjane

Poor boy, looks in a right mess! Glad he is safe.
