Monty's Page

My name is Monty and I am a loveable rascal. I like to help Dad with his hobbies or in the garage and to attack other animals. I love watching TV and killing any creature daft enough to enter my garden (they only ever visit once). My favourite food is Spam. 

Here I am with my father. I was only a pup in this shot and still settling into my new home. I was born on a farm and had to get tough pretty fast. I think that Mum was a Jack Russell Terrier and Dad a Yorkshire Terrier - or was it the other way around?

 

Either way, I have a new family now and a very good life.

 

 

 

 

 

This is me in the snow when I was a puppy. I love the snow and I love going for walks with Dad.

 

 

 

 

I was taken camping.

 

Here I am with my father on the beach at Lyme Regis - he could have taken me somewhere warmer. I do like a bit of camping though.

 

Here Dad, is that a fossil?

 

 

 

 

 

You just can't beat bacon cooking on a camping stove - beats dog food any time!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am a bit of a telly-adict. This show is my favourite - 'Crufts'.

 

 

 

Christmas 2014 - I do like Christmas because I get lots of food and I have my family around me all day long. My Father got me a new toy - a squeaky squirrel called 'Nutkin'. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here I am in bed with Nutkin. Every morning when my father goes to work, he makes sure that I am properly tucked in. It's a dog's life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was very cold so I had to wear a shirt.

 

I keep telling Dad that I'm not human but I don't think he gets it.

 

How humiliating! 

 

 

Christmas 2016 and I had a special dinner. This year I had Turkey and Ham and lamb and Beef and Sausages.

 

I didn't have any stuffing though, as I didn't want to be greedy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here I am - March 2018 and out in the snow with Dad.

 

I must say that the snow looks more fun than it really is - why can't I have some wellies?

 

 

 

 

 

I've had a haircut - really short this time but it does feel nice.

 

 

 

 

 

It's a hard life sometimes.

 

I don't really sleep all the time - Dad just likes taking pictures which make it look that way.

 

Here I am with Archie - he's not great company but I put up with him - shame about the smell though.

 

 

I don't know how this one got onto my page.

 

Her name is Gracie and belongs to Dad's friend Becky.

 

 

 

 

 

It's my birthday - I am now 9 years old

 

- but still looking good.

Dear Visitor,

 

Thanks for taking a look at my little blog.

 

I started this in 2014 when there was a lot of conversation about blogs and I wondered how hard it could be to knock one up.

 

It was originally intended just to keep pictures in some kind of structure and to stay in touch with a few pals who live around the UK and wider but it has become useful in other ways too. I rotate content from time to time to keep it looking fairly fresh or to make some space (which is limited all the time this is a free website).

 

Apologies for not having a contact page but I did have one previously and could actually not keep up with emails. Because some of these related to car and building safety, I felt I should probably leave these questions to the experts as H&S is not always high enough on my agenda and I didn't want anybody getting hurt trying to copy any of my daft antics.
