Meet Monterrey, or "Monte" as his friends call him! This sweet, shy puppy charms with his gentle eyes and loving spirit rather than boundless energy. At about 6 months, Monte is still getting used to new people and places. When he feels safe, his affectionate nature shines through, revealing what a special dog he truly is. Rescued from an accidental litter in North Carolina, he is now ready for a patient, loving home that understands his needs. Monte is heartworm negative, mostly house trained, and expected to reach around 50 pounds fully grown. This calm and quiet boy enjoys being with other dogs and prefers the simple pleasures in life—peaceful walks, cozy afternoons, and quiet moments. He needs a family that will allow him to settle in at his own pace, a calm environment that fosters his growing confidence, and folks committed to his ongoing training. While he may be shy initially, the love and loyalty he has to offer will surely make the wait worthwhile. Monte is eager for the chance to fully blossom in a forever family that appreciates the wonderful dog he is becoming. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
