Adopted Hospice Dog Doing Well

(Michigan City, IN) - A dog given six months to live is doing well in his new hospice home. The 14-year-old pit bull was adopted recently from Michiana Humane Society in Michigan City.

 

Jordan and Jen Chapman were hooked by how playful the dog was and wanted to give him a loving home during his final days. Jordan says Marley, despite his cancer is, perhaps, happier ever.  The couple is well qualified to take care of the dog with Jordan running an animal shelter in Illinois and her wife a massage therapist for hospice patients.

 

The Chapman’s have already treated the dog to a Burger King hamburger and a cup of whipped cream from Starbucks. Other bucket list items include a ride on a fire truck and a trip to Wrigley Field.
