Born in Champaign, Illinois, Monty grew up in Omaha, Nebraska before moving to Alabama in 1971. Monty earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Auburn University. He is currently the Vice President of a software company.
Monty has always had dogs in his home, but has found it equally rewarding to help those dogs and cats whom have needed assistance in finding their forever homes. Inspired by Melissa's efforts with several rescue operations, Monty has been active in volunteering his time to aid efforts to help our four legged friends. Monty and Melissa were lucky enough to have spent time in Kanab, Utah, volunteering at the Best Friends Animal Society's "Dog Town". To see the work the volunteers and staff provide there was inspirational. Despite their and thousands of other good peoples efforts, there is still more work to be done. A portion of the proceeds from "Tuff Guy" will go to selected rescue groups to help them with their never ending efforts; helping those whom can't speak for themselves.view less
