Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Monty is literally a little old man. He isn’t actually “old” but he sure is living life on little legs. He definitely has a salt-and-pepper face and “retired gentleman” energy. His retirement dream is simple- a peaceful home, coziness, and a person who feels whole-heartedly that quality time is the best time, because it absolutely does! If Monty had a motto is would be “slow is the new fast.”
Want to see his low-key vibes and tiny-leg strut in action? Head to YouTube for “Monty | Silver-Fox Snuggle Scout”

Monty is an older small-dog type, honestly his body gives big dog just shrunk down in a comically cute way. If you are going to corner us for a “breed” we might go with little lab/little pittie. Very official. He is estimated to be 8 years old and weighs 36 lbs (best guess, rescue rules apply). And don’t let the age or the little legs fool you- he gets around just fine, he just prefers life at his own pace, nice and slow. On walks, he does occasionally decide to insist on a break. Its easy enough to get him moving but it is also just as easy to take his lead and have a little break. He is trying to remind you that neither of you are training for a marathon.
At heart, Monty is a sweet companion. He has showed us an especially side with little ones. He goes from the sweet snuggly moments into clearing space for a spontaneous cartwheel or Barbie Jeep take-off. He is even okay with a dress-up moment. We wouldn’t say he is down to be a “toy” dog, afterall our seniors deserve a little peace and quiet to rest, but he will be like the fun grandpa who drops into the party for a bit. We would recommend kids 5+ who can follow his lead and give him the gentle, easygoing treatment he’s earned along with understanding he needs sleep to recharge for the fun.
For his ideal home, just between us, Monty would love to be in an only dog home. He has heard about how peaceful and full of love only-dog life is and since then he hasnt stopped dreaming. He has shown he can warm up and even gets moments of bouncy and playful energy but it is short short lived and moves right into “I’ll be over here smelling.” The only absolute is no cats. And again because he has earned it, we respect our elders.
Monty’s hits:
* Senior, calm, “let’s just be together” companion energy
* Enjoys short strolls and yard sniffaris, not long hikes
* Great, fun-grandpa energy with respectful kids (recommended 5+)
* Would do great in an apartment or cozy home with understanding that he is not built for speed
*No cats
*Prefer solo-dog home
If you’ve got a quiet home, a steady routine, and a soft spot for a sweet little gentleman who just wants to be near his person, Monty is ready to clock in for his retirement job: professional chill-advisor and easy-company. Apply today!

Our transport includes drop off locations, in WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT, TN, KY, WI, MN, IL, WI and Canada (pick up in Bellingham, WA, Buffalo, NY or Brattleboro, VT for for Canadian adopters). You will have the opportunity to track their journey in real time, see photo updates, learn fun facts, connect with fellow adopters and fosters through our private Facebook event page!
Before the adoption is finalized, you will meet your pet through a video call, creating a fun and personalized experience!

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:
Extensive behavioral testing and information from trainers on our staff to ensure the perfect fit for your family
Discounts on Embark DNA test kit- $30 off of Breed ID test or $50 off of Breed ID plus Health test

The Greater Houston area faces one of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the U.S. We’re a nonprofit on a mission—to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome dogs at risk, while promoting spay/neuter outreach in the community. When you adopt, you save more than one life— the one you adopted, and the space opened up to save another.
