Adventures Of A New Agent and Man's Best Friend

Real Estate Agent with Houlihan Lawrence, Associate Broker

The last few days, I read a wonderful book, "Marley and Me," by John Grogan. A wonderfully entertaining love story to his painfully disobedient Labrador Retriever. The book spans Marley's life from puppy-hood to becoming a senior canine and the family who loves him. I have to warn you this is a tissue box book. Then just imagine my surprise to find a real estate article that compares another Lab to being a new agent in real estate. Read How Brian's Dog Can Help New Agents Build Their Business. Guess we need to be housebroken too.

Thanks, just a conicidence I guess. Being compared to a dog isn't that bad. At least we are trainable.

Hi,

If you are a dog lover and a student of life there are good heart wrenching lessons here.
