Marley has come in to the care of the rescue due to his owners circumstances changing in the near future & it was felt that Marley would not get the attention that he deserves. Rather than prolong it they felt it would be best for him to come in now instead of several months down the line when he was older making it harder for him. He is a typical pupster. So far getting on great with Helens to lovely boys & also Max & Pippin.
Aunty Helen will be along as soon as she can (after she has managed to put him down ) to tell you all more about this little man & try if possible to get a few pics of him on.

Anyone wishing to be considered for the adoption of MARLEY is required to complete an adoption form after reading all the adoption rules & procedures please.
The adoption form can be found by clicking on the here: http://www.yorkieandtoybreedrescue.co.uk/adopting.html

I had just started a thread for him on 'Dog Chat' we must have been doing the same thing at once Sue Well, where do I start about Milo/Marley (Kieran has insisted on changing his name to Marley??? He answers to it so I have let him )

Marley is a beautiful/handsome little dog. He had a fantastic nature and has taken his long journey and new experiences completely in his stride He has a little bit of a 'runny bum' today but it's to be expected Marley's mummy was heartbroken to part with him, he has been a very loved little man, this shows through in his lovely personality. He loves kids (he's tucked up in bed with Kieran at the moment and slept there with him last night until it was my bedtime ).

It's early days yet, but so far all I can do is report wonderful things about Marley He has come from a young family home and is looking for similar, he loves people and is very easy going. Being 10 months old he will need lots of exercise. He's lovely and is going to make someone VERY happy Not many photos as he doesn't stay still for long!

Oh he's such a sweetie! I'm sure he won't be waiting for long for a new home!!

looks like we need to change you from newbie to Foster Carer (& thats not spelt FAILED either)

aww feel for the owners, that must of been so so hard, at least they can keep track and know he will go to a loving home.

He Looks like Archie in that First pic asleep..

Deffo wont be long till he gets his new home.

He doesnt even look swedish!! Was he self assembly?? Hes lovely Helen, you kept that quiet! Why did I think you were getting an ickle austrailian?? Hows he getting along with Max and Pippin??? Love the pic of him snugged up and cosy. He looks a little darlin, still a pupster he will keep you busy for sure!! xx

He's getting on great with Pippin-they had a bit of a grump and a growl when they first met but have been best friends since. Max likes him too although I think he will like him a bit better when he's been for a certain little operation at the vets if you know what I mean He had certainly kept us on our toes today but we've had lots of fun with them all

Aww Im missing him like mad! He is so loving when it comes to kids, I'm pleased he is enjoying his foster home and his new friends. If u need to know anything just drop me a message, I hope he finds a loving home soon, he def needs loads of exercise very lively little mite

Hi and welcome to the forum It was lovely to meet you yesterday-I hope your all okay. Please feel free to join in with his thread and other topics too I will post plenty of (when he stays still long enough ) and you can follow his progress onto his new home with his forever family:D He's a lovely little fella - were all very taken with him already (I hope you don't mind Kieran changing his name - his friend has a dog called Marley and Kieran was adamant it suited him ). Chat soon. Helenx

Ah ha now I see where Milo/marley is as said before big decision made by his mom but in his best interests and with love for him also.. He will be soon looking at a forever family am sure.. Sue and Mulan keep these secrets then pop them out of a hat were they once magicians I am asking myself..helen you will do a wonderful job and your boys will love him to bits..

I love his name and what can I say about him...he' is so cute! Some one is gonna be so so lucky to adopt him! He's so near by for me too...how tempted am I! The prob is my Hubby said no to even a tortoise yesterday let alone another doglet, so I'll just have to make do with my Bonnie and Emmie for now, plus 2 very greedy guinea pigs!

How is Marley today?? Is he jammin'?

Hi Penny. You need to fill in an adoption form to apply for Marley. You could also post some information about yourself in the introduction forum and then we can welcome you officially. But anyway.

He's so lovely Marley is the sort of little dog that everyone wants to stroke and say 'Hello' to Kieran had a giggle this morning as when he took Marley for his walk lots of Ladies came out of the sheltered housing to see him (Normally it's just one lady who comes to see Max or Pippin ) he got a little bit further and more people wanted to see him....you get the drift

Marley came to watch Zak play rugby tonight and (as expected) was a true star He sat patiently with me while we watched and then had great fun running and chasing with all of the kids in a field

We've had a few accidents which I'm not worried about as my house must have so many scents that are a little confusing for a pup - I think he will be fine once he settles and gets used to all of the smells It's marking more than an 'accident'.

He's booked for a trip to the vets next Friday He will come back slightly lighter (if you get my drift! lol).

If all these ladies keep coming out to say you best add a few more minutes on to the walk timetable. Sounds asif he is settling well and getting lots of love from you all - and once his bits have been sorted he will be fine..Think there is more than one application for him already..

Hi Helen, hope milo is getting on ok!? The house is very quiet without him keep thinking he's there and turn round and he's not
hope his trip to the vets goes ok tomorrow.

Hi Rachel, he's fine and an absolute star:D I took him to meet my vet today and he was so good. He has conjunctivitis and is not terribly keen on the drops the vet gave me bless him He was so good and waited very patiently for his turn He has another visit booked for next Friday He will come back slightly lighter from that visit though!!

He loves Kieran and follows him everywhere He's up in bed with him at the moment Hope your okay xx

Marley has been with us a week now, he's settling in really well and his true personality is really coming through He is a happy little chap, great with kids, dogs, visitors etc. He is learning to be nice to the guinea pigs but at the moment he views them as a food source lol!

He loves being in the garden with Max and the kids. He will chase a ball, and is learning the 'drop' command . He loves walks and is good on a lead We are working on leave and stay commands too, he is 95% accurate on 'sit' but as most yorkies do - he has selective hearing! lol! (baked liver seems to help with that though ) His 'marking' has just about ceased, we have only had one or two incidents, he is starting to run to the door now though to be let outside!

Marley is not an fussy pup, he is very gentle(except if you're a guinea pig) but still quite lively Marley would definitely benefit from a family environment, he is full of fun (and mischief) and he is a pleasure to foster Photo's are rather tricky to take of this little fella...I have just downloaded 37 onto my computer (about 30 of them are his ear, bum or side of head where he turned at the wrong moment )

Great pics Helen.

Such a sweet innocent little face! Do we know how much he weighs yet and how tall he is? Is he likely to grow more? (It's a long time since I had a pup!) Really good news that he is responding well to a bit of training!

What a cutie! He just wants to give the guinea pigs a little kissy, honest!

jewy wrote:What a cutie! He just wants to give the guinea pigs a little kissy, honest!

Yeah right after he's got his plate, cutlery, condiments and tucked his napkin into his collar he'll be giving them a 'special kiss'

I tried the introduction to them yesterday I held the unshockable guinea pig and stroked Marley a the same time....it needs much more work as the effect was very similar to watching a great white 'playing' with a shark cage when the divers are inside He really doesn't need to 'make friends' with his lunch

Marley also views the hoover as lunch However, I do think I stand a chance of training him on that one Marley weighs 4.6kg, my vet said he will still gain weight for a bit yet, South Yorkies...I cant get him to stand still for long enough to measure him He is 'average' yorkie size, sorry!

He is so like my Archie, though obviously i never had Archie at that age.... i am sure he would love Marley as a playmate.

what a beautiful boy, he looks like he loves posing for the camera

He's totally adorable isn't he. Once again good luck to both Marley and his prospective new Mum and Dads xxx

Helen he is sooo adorable! He sounds like a right character too and you are all obviously doing such a great job with him. I really do hope he finds himself a home - I'm very sad he has the "boy bits" or I would have been fighting for this one!!!!!

Hi Emma, please don't think me rude but can I ask why you're only looking for a girl dog? Having looked after/had both I cannot really tell the difference between them (apart from the obvious! lol)
