Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Check out Monty. He is the happiest, pouty faced, meatball, nugget of perfection you could ever wish to meet. He may look like he is not having a good time but he is just waiting to let loose by squirming in the grass and showing his friends how much he loves them. Monty loves a tasty snack, but he loves his trusted people even more!
Does Monty want to live with another dog? No. Does Monty walk on leash like the most perfect gentleman with a ridiculous amount of training under his nonexistent belt? Heck Yes. Does Monty want to live with cats? Nope. Does he think he is superior to them because he is a dog and therefore should never share a home with them? Yep. Does Monty want to hang out with your kids, nieces, nephews or random kid from down the block? Double nope. Could he handle a moody teenager or older kids that just get it? Yeah, they could be ok. Giant house party with lots of friends, food and drinks? No thanks, Monty prefers a chill night with his people.
Our Monty has those soulful puppy dog eyes and an adorable prominent underbite that has a way of pulling at our heartstrings. "Monty is very polite and smart! said Monty's pal and volunteer, Carrie. "He loves to lounge in the kiddie pool, and he is such a good boy!
- He loves to explore the outdoors and can walk for miles!
- Monty is fully house-trained and has proven to be a respectful houseguest. He's also a TOP Dog graduate, meaning he's a pro at leash walking, sitting calmly, and coming when called.
- He's also an excellent snoozer and is content to chill on the couch and keep you company for hours during Netflix marathons.
If you're looking for a silly, sweet-natured and handsome pup, why not go the full Monty? Follow him on Instagram @adopt_montythepit
