The Mystery of Marley

Roscoe, Monty and Henry here with a true story.

We have a cousin named Marley who is surrounded by a deep mystery.

Late one evening, it was close to Christmas, our Uncle Den and Auntie Kris returned home from a people outing with friends.

As the opened the door they could hear some not human noises.  They crept carefully into their home (we might have done this different).  In the center of the entryway floor sat a large crate, the noise was coming from this crate.  They slowly approached the crate and peered in. (Does this really seem wise and safe?)

Not to fear!  Inside was the cutest puppy ever, our cousin Marley.

That is when the big fight broke out.  The deal was no more puppies and they accused each other of bringing a puppy home.  (People are not very smart, they were together all evening so a third human had to have brought that puppy into their home.)

Well they couldn’t kick a puppy into the street so they decided to keep him until they could decide what to do with him.  One day turned into two, days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months and Marley has been there now for years.

Auntie and Uncle never did figure out the giver of Marley had to have a key to the house….  Us dogs can keep a secret and we won’t ever tell.

P.S.  Our Mom really had nothing to do with the Marley mystery but because she is our Mom so she does know who the culprit is and has promised not to tell.  Don’t keep secrets from your Mom.
