About Monty
Keeping things interesting
Monty is a lively and curious boy who fills every day with energy and fun. At home, he enjoys being around people and has a friendly, social nature. He’s toilet trained but, like many dogs who are still learning, has had a few small accidents. When he’s had enough exercise, he settles nicely and loves a quiet nap. However, if he misses his walk, his extra energy can lead to a bit of mischief. He travels well in the car and needs a helping hand to hop in. Stairs aren’t his favourite, though he’ll manage them when encouraged.
Mealtimes are important to Monty. He loves his food and can be quite greedy, so providing him with his own feeding area helps support good behaviour at meals. Away from mealtimes, he’s affectionate and energetic. With clear boundaries and patience, this is something he can continue to improve on.
Out on walks, Monty is curious and easily distracted by interesting smells, so he benefits from a confident handler to guide him. He’s comfortable around busy roads and loud noises and sometimes shows his excitement by jumping up for attention. Monty’s high energy makes him a great match for an active household that can give him daily exercise, structure, and time to unwind. With consistent routines and understanding, he will be a loyal and entertaining companion.
Monty is not cat or pocket pet tolerant.

Adoption details
Our greyhounds live in foster homes until they find their adoption home. This introduces them to pet life, toilet-training and they learn how to behave inside the home as well as all the new experiences they get on their daily walks. Many spend time in a home with another dog, children and a few sometimes with a cat.
As a safety net for greyhounds who may not otherwise have a chance at finding a forever home, we do our very best to find the right home to match our greyhounds' needs. If you are interested in Greyhound Adoption or Greyhound Fostering, please complete our On-line Application to help us understand more about you and recommend whether the dog you are applying for matches your lifestyle.
