About This Dog
What WeRescue Scout knows about Monchi
Monchi thrives with regular exercise, socialization, and plenty of human companionship — ideally a home with another dog, access to dog parks or daycare, and commitment to continued training and daily walks. His outgoing personality and playful energy mean he does best with adopters who can give him consistent structure, outdoor time, and the ongoing socialization support that helps dogs from Puerto Rico settle into their new environment.
- Requires significant commitment to socialization and regular dog interaction (resident dog, dog park, or daycare recommended)
- May need extra patience during transition from Puerto Rico to U.S. environment
- Housetraining status unknown; still learning crate training and basic commands

About Monchi
Lucky Dog Animal Rescue
Foster BasedSince our founding in May 2009, Lucky Dog has rescued more than 34,500 at-risk dogs and cats. We partner with overcrowded and under-resourced shelters to ensure all adoptable animals have a chance at a loving forever home. Our foster-based adoption program is located in the DC metro area. Our foster animals come to adoption events on the weekends where they can meet prospective adopters, but can also meet with prospective adopters outside of events. Our volunteer adoption counsellors help adopters navigate the adoption process and can make suggestions if needed!
Lucky Dog's South Carolina Rescue Campus is located in Florence County and serves as a transport hub where animals receive the veterinary care they need prior to moving into our adoption program. We also provide low cost spay/neuter for our community as well as free vaccine and microchip clinics. Our Rescue Campus opened a dedicated cat building in June 2026 called "Cat Crossing" to compliment "Stopover Station" where our dogs reside while they wait for transport. We also have a Ringworm Treatment Center, ICU, and vet clinic.
