Name: Monty
Age: 1 year old
Sex: Male
Breed: Doberman
Ref number: 2
Personality:
Monty is a fun affectionate boy with heaps of energy and plenty of love to give. He enjoys cuddles with his human friends and he thinks he’s a cat because he wants nothing more than to curl up on your lap but he doesn’t seem to understand how big he is. He loves his toys and enjoys a really good run off lead, where he will bound around making us all laugh.
Behaviour:
Monty is reactive particularly on lead to dogs and people, however we believe this to be down to frustration as he is able to make human friends quickly and has walked with other dogs. He is very strong and will spin and back up when on lead so his new person/people will need to have experience with a large reactive dog and be prepared to work with an ABTC trainer / behaviourist to help him work through this.
Housing:
Monty would benefit from living in a quiet area with a large enclosed garden with 6ft fencing, he would also benefit from regular access to a large enclosed off lead exercise area. He cannot be rehomed to the Havant / Waterlooville area.
Please note, anybody interested in adopting Monty will need to live within an hours drive of PO14. Monty will need ongoing behavioural support in his new home and the behaviour team must be able to travel to you.
Children/pets:
Monty should be the only dog in the house and he cannot live with small animals or cats. He could live with Children over the age of 13 who are used to large bouncy dogs but it would not be appropriate for the children to walk Monty due to his reactivity and strength.
Vet history:
Monty has been castrated and is fully vaccinated and up to date with his flea and worming treatment.
Due to being a white Doberman Monty has lack of pigment in his eyes and is sensitive to bright light, he will need to wear goggles in the sunlight and sun cream on his nose in the summer months.
