... sat here crying my eyes out like a blubbering baby too. It's such a heartwarming but heartwrenching movie. I watched it alone online, my husband and son have not seen it yet but I'm going to have to buy it so they can watch it too. I have 2 dogs, one of which is a yellow lab just like Marley was. My dog's name is Daisy though (and my other one is Lilly but she's a golden retriever).
After I watched the movie, I had to go and lay down with my dogs and hug them - telling them how much I love them. They show me on a daily basis how much they love me and I often take it for granted - I'm going to try to show them my love back, as much as I can.
Aren't animals just amazing? They adore us no matter what - always there, so excited to see us every time we walk in the door. What do we give them back? No matter what we do, it will never measure up to the love they show us - that's for sure!

Dogs always give unconditional love. I do special things for my Belle, but probably not as often as I should. She is half yellow lab, half standard poodle. I saw the movie and cried like a baby too. I told Belle the same thing that John told Marley: "Tell me when it's time, because I don't want to make that decision by myself." She's my baby. I need to do more special things for my remarkable little girl.
