Monty

My story

Loyal, Affectionate & EnergeticMonty’s owner passed away suddenly in the hospital. He and two cats were found living in an apartment where they had only been receiving the most minimal care and food for weeks. Monty and the cats required a great deal of care after this trauma - which Monty’s Foster Mom gave him in abundance! Over the last 2 months we have witnessed Monty blossom and learn to be himself again in the safety of a loving home. He’s now ready for his forever home and a patient adopter that will give him a second chance and in return be rewarded with affection, loyalty and a fun companion.BIO: - Cocker Spaniel mix, 7 yrs old, Male (neutered)- Medium-sized (45 lb), Medium-High energy- Monty’s owner passed away and he was surrendered by the owner’s family member- Monty is house-trained, microchipped and has his core vaccinationsABOUT MONTY: - Loves people and will greet new friends with unsolicited dog kisses and tail wags.
