In search of an exotic pet? How about a Monkey?? Ok, fine- he’s really a dog, but he’s just as fun as a a whole barrel of monkeys!! This little primate has been spending a few days a week at the offsite location of PACC’s rescue partner, Tucson Rescue Now. Here’s what they had to say about him: “Monkey has a kennelmate at the shelter, so he could definitely be happy in a multi-dog household. We discovered he LOVES squeaky toys, but he doesn’t chew them up. He just really enjoys getting all the squeaks out of them. He’s a strong guy but walking on a harness is definitely helping him to do better. He’s a really friendly guy and likes to talk to new friends. We’re helping him to learn that sitting nicely and taking treats gently is a much better way to get to know people. He is eager to please and he’s a great cuddler.” And here’s what one of the Monkey keepers at the shelter had to say: “Monkey was easy to leash and we went to a yard with his kennel mate, where he approached for lots of affection. He is a very loving boy who considers himself a lap dog. He sat perfectly for treats, took them nicely from my hand, and was very friendly and respectful of his male kennel mate of similar size. Monkey will make a great dog for an active family, he's so sweet. Return to kennel was easy.” Ask to meet Monkey today! |
