That’s right. The recent box-office hit ‘Marley & Me’ star is currently residing in a quiet community in West Kendall, and is full of zest and energy like the Marley in the movie!
Rhett, a Labrador Retriever, starred as Marley when he was a puppy for several of the scenes in the film. One of Rhett’s most accomplished moments as a young star was his ability to bust into the screen door, as no other puppy on set would even attempt such a stunt! He is also admired by many other pups for the scene when he knocks over the enormous bag of dog food, and lies on the ground consuming every last pebble of food.
Rhett’s current owner says he is full of energy, but thanks to great trainers, much of that energy can be controlled and does not cause quite as much havoc as portrayed in the movie. Her home in West Kendall has a large yard, allowing for plenty of room for the 82 pound Labrador to play.
