MARLEY Marley is a very unique puppy with a very special purpose. She is a shorkie filled with sparkle and love, who lives in St. Thomas, Ontario with my father and me. Marley and I enjoy many adventures together, like running on the beach, going for walks and playing in the park. Marley loves to go shopping or to the bank to meet new people, and loves running beside me as I rollerblade. Marley gives everyone she meets lots of love and hope. I even wrote a book called “Marley’s Dream” to share her with as many people as possible. —Nichola Zacher, St. Thomas, Ontario CALLING ALL CANINE (AND FELINE) CREW!
