This is Mr Monty; a lovely 6 year old greyhound who just joined the family!

Monty retired from racing due to age – running a staggering 200 races before retirement. He’s a little bit battered and bruised from his racing days, but his personality certainly isn’t. Monty is a super loving, fun and happy hound. He loves people, interacts brilliantly with other hounds and also has his very own girlfriend and kennel mate. He shares his space absolutely amazingly, and really enjoys running around our field with her. He can certainly live with another hound. Monty hasn’t been here long enough for us to be able to see how he gets on with other breeds, but if you have a non sighthound in the home already and like the look of Monty, we do a few visits here at the kennel anyway so we can really make sure your dog and Monty get on well before adoption day.

Monty would make a lovely family pet with children who are sensible and dog savvy. Monty is a slightly older dude now who has known nothing but work, so now he’s retired he’s just going to want a lovely home to lounge around in and put his feet up. Children will need to understand when Monty wants to be left alone to rest. 

He’s a very confident boy and a bit of an attention seeker at times so we feel like Monty would love to join his family to the pub, coffee shops etc. He’d love to go places where he can be the star of the show and lap up all the affection and attention from people he can get. 

We love Monty here, and really enjoy seeing his little personality start to shine through more and more every day. If you’re a nice, easy going home with a Monty sized hole in your heart, please do get in touch! Monty would absolutely love to meet you.
