Monty lights up a room the minute he walks in—he’s got that kind of presence. These days, he’s thrilled to attend daycare at Downtown Dogs in Minneapolis, where he’s truly come into his own and found joy in socializing and play. It’s hard to believe a dog like Monty is still waiting for his home. He’s young, energetic, and eager to be a real part of a family. Monty thrives when he has a job to do or something to figure out; he takes to training quickly and clearly wants to be included in the day-to-day rhythm of family life. After a tough start living on the streets in Texas, Monty settled into house life without skipping a beat. He’s house trained and kennel trained—although he’ll make it known that going into the kennel isn’t his favorite, he settles once inside. Daily walks and plenty of activity are a must for Monty, as he’s full of energy and curiosity. He gets along well with other dogs and really shines in their company, but he does not do well with indoor cats—he thinks chasing them is a sport. Monty’s adoption fee covers his first year of vaccines, including Lyme and lepto, with flu vaccine available upon request. By the way, Monty's birthday makes him a Sagittarius, meaning adventure, learning, and energy come naturally for him. Start your journey together! Apply now.
