HOME APPEAL

Animal welfare experts are appealing for a home for a one- of- a -kind beauty named Monty.

The handsome four-year-old blue merle Lurcher, based at Dogs Trust in West Calder, Livingston.

A Dogs Trust spokesperson said: “This unique looking boy arrived at the centre in April as a stray.

“With a personality and nature as beautiful as his looks, he is hoping that he will find his perfect match soon and be able to relax in a home he can call his very own.

“Monty makes friends quickly and adores spending time with people. His favourite thing to do is have a fun game of fetch in the garden or explore the great outdoors with his special someone.

“He is an active boy and will benefit from learning new tricks and having different types of exercise and games and to keep his mind busy and satisfied. He might also enjoy trying new activities such as hill walking or agility.

“Monty can be worried when left alone and is looking for someone who can be at home most of the day to help settle him into his new routine and keep him company.

“He can live with children around the age of 14 and will make a fantastic pet in the right home.”
