Meet Marley
Breed: Bishon poodle
Barking from: Te Puna , Tauranga
What's up dog?
Marley is so well known locally and in other towns in New Zealand, he is always with one or more of his humans and is a regular at the local tavern where he has his own little bed and bowl out where the people are. He has a little wander and greats each person that enters, without being too intrusive. He is almost 15 years old but is not showing any sign of aging yet. He has traveled the length and breathe of the north island in his and his mums housebus. He is such a well behaved handsome wee guy who has been his mums lifesaver. Loyal, caring, adventurous, happy, gives great cuddles. He is a boy in a wolley coat with impeccable manners.
