Monk's Story
Monk is not everyone's "type," and that's probably why he's still here-but let's talk about what he is. <br/><br/>As a youngster, he bounced from home to home before being dumped in the middle of the road, survived that, then waited at the shelter only to endure a hurricane that sent a tree crashing down onto his kennel and completely destroying it-with him inside-and yes, he survived that too. Along the way he's lost 19 teeth, one toe, and undergone CCL surgery, healed up, and kept going like it's just another Tuesday. <br/><br/>Monk looks like life has happened to him because it has, and yet he is still here, still standing, still waiting. He's quirky, unconventional, a little rough around the edges, and entirely real-the kind of dog who doesn't need perfection, just a person. After surviving abandonment, natural disaster, surgery, and years of being overlooked, he should not spend another season in a kennel. Monk has done enough surviving. It's time for him to go home.
