Marley has been treated for fleas and worms, is fully vaccinated and microchipped. He will be adopted with a contract to neuter when he reaches the appropriate age.

 

Marley was dumped in someone’s garden - he and three siblings were left in a plastic box that was tied around their mum’s neck. Thankfully someone found mum and the pups and cared for them before being handed over to Spaniel Rescue Foundation.

 

As with all the puppies, Marley was suffering from a bad flea infestation on his tiny body which led to him losing some of his fur. He was smelly, itchy and confused.

 

Despite his start in life, Marley has shown incredible resilience and is full of love, fun and confidence.  He has been in foster care for 2 weeks and has improved so much. He is gaining weight, and his fur is slowly beginning to grow back. His personality is starting to shine through.

 

 Marley is a really handsome cheeky, chunky chappy – he is often the instigator of play and loves rough and tumbling with the others. Although he is the least cuddly of the pups, he is happy to be cuddled but often wants to get down so he can carry on playing. He usually cuddles up with the other pups at sleep time but can often be found by himself when not asleep. When the pups first arrived, Marley seemed to be the most confident, but as they are settling in, he has started to look a little less confident compared to the others.

 

Marley loves his food! He currently weighs 3.1kg
