Weighing in at about 40 pounds, this medium-sized boy thinks the backyard is the ultimate adventure. Monty takes his time with new friends. Strangers make him a bit anxious, and his protective instincts often manifest as barking from a safe distance while he trembles in place. Imagine a security system, just a bit worried.
