John and Marley and he says: “Marley I know you are

strong but you will tell me when it is time, I don't want to
make the decision by myself, you will tell me when you
are ready”.

Jhenny and Patrick help Marley get him home because

he couldn't walk.
Marley didn’t listen, less walk.
They decided to take him to the vet where they voluntarily
killed him and that an operation to the stomach, he
wouldn’t resist.
Jenny and Patrick cried too much.

John says to Marley: “You're tired, you don't have to do anything,

you don't have your usual energy. You remember how we were
always saying what a pain you are?. That you're the world's worst
dog? Don't believe it”. We love you too much, I don't know what
will happen next, remember that you are a great dog.
