This is Monty, a very friendly and happy young man, looking for a forever home. Monty is a type A Rat Terrier who weighs in at only 10 pounds. Don't let that distinguished gray on his face fool you though, because he's still a young man at only 5 years old. Monty is a funny little boy who will brighten up a room the minute he trots in. He's a very social guy who has never met a stranger. Monty will greet everyone with a tail wag (or a nub wag, since his tail is docked) and will offer gentle kisses if someone bends down to greet him. He is a lot of fun and is constantly making his fostermom laugh with his silly antics. His foster family reports that he likes to show off his vocal abilities too! Here is a
video clip of him showing his foster family just how much he loves a certain Usher song - and here's
another video. Monty is great with children and loves to be around them. He is affectionate and loves to snuggle up with you - but is not at all clingy. He just enjoys being with the ones he loves. Monty is totally housebroken, is wonderful in a crate, but can be trusted to be home alone, without supervision. He is also very smart and listens extremely well; he really wants to please his people. He knows sit, down, high five and he's working on a couple more tricks that he's picking up quickly! Monty does fine with small and medium dogs but is not a big fan of the big dogs - although he's working on that; he may be best suited in a home without a large or dominant dog. So if you're looking for a fun dog that's very friendly, silly and is just plain adorable, then Monty's your man! Check out his
pictures just to see how cute he really is!
