Monte lives with a condition called Megaesophagus. Essentially, Monte's esophagus is enlarged and doesn't function correctly to help keep his food down. So in order to feed him, we employ a team to hold him upright while he eats, then keep him held upright for at least 15 minutes while his food digests (3x daily!), in order to prevent him from regurgitating his food.
Monte is a gleeful, playful puppy who otherwise lives a normal life. He LOVES toys and enjoys his "party time" in our training room where he runs out his zoomies. Although his condition prevents us from using treats to train, he's highly toy motivated!
