go-lucky young dog whose joyful spirit and loving personality make him an instant favorite. At just one year old and 44 pounds, this handsome Pointer/Mountain Cur mix brings the perfect balance of playful energy and affectionate companionship. Monty is friendly, eager to please, and truly thrives on spending time with his people. One of Monty’s most charming traits is his big, sweet smile, which he happily shares whenever he’s getting attention or enjoying time with his humans. He loves affection and will gladly soak up pets, brushing sessions, and even towel-drying after a rainy adventure. Monty’s enthusiasm and desire to connect make him a wonderful companion who genuinely enjoys being part of everyday life. Monty is a smart and well-mannered boy who already knows several commands, including: sit, down, wait, off, and come. He is fully housetrained and quickly mastered using a dog door. Crate time comes naturally to him as well; he sleeps quietly through the night and often chooses to relax in an open crate during the day. Mealtime is another moment where Monty shines - he politely runs to his spot, waits patiently for his bowl, and eats calmly even around other dogs. Playtime is where Monty’s fun-loving side really comes out. He enjoys chasing balls, playing tug with toys, and romping around with other dogs. He meets new people and canine friends, does well with older children, and has even shown respectful behavior around a dog-friendly cat. On walks, he’s a pleasure to handle, walking nicely on leash without pulling, and he hops happily into the car for rides, quietly taking in the sights along the way. Monty would thrive in a home with an active individual or family who can continue nurturing his training while giving him plenty of love and attention. A fenced yard and a playful canine companion would be a bonus, but what Monty truly wants most is a person to bond with and share life’s moments. With his affectionate heart, bright intelligence, and joyful outlook, Monty is ready to become a loyal, loving companion who will bring smiles every single day.
