About Monty

Monty is a delightful 6-year-old Chihuahua who thrives on companionship. Weighing in at about 14 pounds, he’s the perfect little shadow, always wanting to be close to his person. Monty is a true Velcro dog, snuggling up at night and following you around by day. He doesn’t ask for much, just some attention and love in return. This little guy is well-behaved and gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats. He cherishes his toys, often carrying them around like treasures. He rides well in the car, walks nicely on a leash, and appears to be house trained.
