When this adorable dog named Marley first discovered a strawberry toy while shopping with his human, he knew straight away that this would be his new favorite toy. The dog made it clear to his mama, Hayley Martin, that he had to have it, so she bought it for her dog, and he was in love from that moment on.

Marley played with the simple dog toy for over a year. He adored it. But sadly, after over a year of Marley's constant adoration, the strawberry toy was getting shabby for the dog to continue playing with it, so Hayley had to throw it away.

"Its last legs was when it got soaked and covered in mud and washing it couldn't save it," Hayley said. Of course, being a good mama, Hayley looked into getting her beloved dog, Marley a replacement strawberry toy straight away. But she was heartbroken to learn that the toy had since been discontinued, and it wasn't hard to imagine the dog would be equally heartbroken to never see his favorite toy again!

Marley is an autism service dog and helps his mama out immensely every day. Hayley desperately wanted to show Marley how much he means to her, so she started posting online, trying to find a replacement strawberry toy for him.

Incredibly, a manager from the store that sold the strawberry toys saw Hayley's post.

She got in touch with Hayley and said she would be happy to send Marley two of the strawberry toys. Hayley was ecstatic!

When the box arrived in the mail, Hayley couldn't wait to open it and give Marley his two new toys. But instead, she found 20 toys inside!

Hayley couldn't believe it, and neither could Marley!

“Marley was shocked,” Martin said. “He didn’t know what to do! He was so gentle about it all but was so excited! He spent an hour going through them all giving each of them a nudge so they would squeak!”

Marley was thrilled to have not only one new strawberry toy but twenty! This good boy will never have to be without his favorite toy again.
