Then, the neighbors tried to lure him back with food, and although hunger brought him back, Marley remained cautious, evading their attempts to catch him.

Despite appearing like a stray, little did they know that Marley had a whole life he yearned to return to, one that he accidentally left behind just a few weeks prior. Unbeknownst to the pup, his family tirelessly searched for him.

During this time, he instinctively returned to the street, where kind people provided him with sustenance.

Suzette Hall, founder of Logan’s Legacy dog rescue, shared, “He was gone for literally two months. But his mom never gave up looking for him.”

“For two months, this tiny guy would wait for days at a time on a corner and then disappear. He didn’t have a home to go back to, but he knew kind people would feed him,” Hall wrote in a Facebook post.

Hall set up a humane trap with tasty treats, and Marley quickly fell for it, ending up safely in her care.

He took Marley to Camino Pet Hospital for a checkup and shared his pictures on Facebook, thinking about finding him a forever home. Little did she know that he already had one.

His family, still searching for him, found Hall's post and recognized their beloved dog instantly. They hurried to the pet hospital for a heartwarming reunion.

As soon as Marley's mom entered, his ears perked up, and the room became charged with emotion. It was a moment of sheer joy and reunion as Marley, after two months of solitude, rediscovered the familiar presence of his mom.

“You should have seen him when he first saw her walk in. It was as if he was like, ‘Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh, it’s her,'" Hall said.

After months of waiting, the little dog joyfully leaped into his mom's arms, showering her face with the wettest kisses. Marley was back where he belonged, and his happiness was evident.
