MARLEY

Marley, a cherished member of the Godecke Clark team, was adopted from the Palm Springs Animal Shelter in 2019 at the age of eight by his devoted companion, Christina McCulloch. During the challenging times of the pandemic, Marley was welcomed into the office. However, it was not until the world reopened that he discovered his true calling of providing comfort and encouraging calmness, blossoming into a beacon of warmth and support for those experiencing distress, grief, or loss.

Despite his lack of teeth, he has also assumed the role of Godecke Clark’s protector, defending against the leaf-blower-wielding gardener, pest control man, and generally suspicious UPS guy. Trained through the PetSmart Beginning and Intermediate Obedience programs, Marley not only understands loyalty but also how to command obedience himself. In his spare time, he enjoys taking walks with his person, riding in a convertible with the top down, and curling up in a warm corner for naps.
