Monte ~ Wolfhound x (On Trial 19/4/16)

Monte (aka Monster) is a beautiful 7 year old Wolfhound X. He is ready and eager to find his furever home. Many know Monte's sad beginning, he is now ready to find a deserving family to give him his happily ever after.

When Monte first came into my care he was very nervous and often hid in the bushes and cowered, shaking in terror. Slowly he began to trust me and within a day he was the biggest sook and is such a gentle boy.

Monte has spent most of his life on a chain with little social interaction, so our first walk was daunting for him, tail between his legs and jumping at every noise.
Fast forward one week and what difference! Monte is amazing on a lead, so easy to walk and he loves his morning walk. He is great with other dogs, large and small, he has no sign of aggression toward animals or humans, Although he is very timid around males.

Monte will be suited to a family where the lady of the house is heavily involved in walking him and settling him in, eventually he will start to trust males in the house. He just needs time and patience (No aggression toward men, but definitely fear). He wants to be loved and in return you will have his complete devotion.

The first couple of nights Monte did howl on and off throughout the night, this has decreased over the past week, with no howling at all for the last couple of days, I'm confident that it was just due to uncertainty. He has always been an outside dog but has really enjoyed joining the family indoors for short periods of time.
