After intently watching Monte’s medical update for 10 minutes I realized I am emotionally invested in a dog on CZcams.
Me too
Ditto
Me too 😄😄💖💕🐶
Me too lol
I think many of us are.
Is there a dog in America getting more prayers and positive vibes? I think not!🤗🤗🤗🐕
:D
Let's say in the whole world
My dogs are spoiled, but good 'ol Monty is pampered like no other
Monty is so sweet. I hope everything turns out all right.
:D
Can anyone guess what really goes on in the head of that adorable furr ball of babyness??? 😆🥰😉❤❤❤❤
Monty is so blessed to have such wonderful humans that love him so much. Stay golden Monty boy. ❤️ You come first.
:D
The love you have and the way you treat your dogs, like they are literally your children, I'm SO blessed to be able to have such pleasure in watching all your videos. Just keep following your bliss and I'm sure you'll do well in this lifetime. You should write a book about all your adventures! I'm sure it would be a great success! God bless you and all your family. ♥️🙏🐕♥️
Hey Matthew.
As a "human" who has spondylosis, stenosis AND a neck that has fused itself over the years after getting whiplash from a crash, stuff thats been slowing aging me for 20 years from 2 crashes (not my doing) I can tell you moving is a must. My ortho surgeons have said "do it til it hurts. If it hurts stop doing it". I know Monty cant tell you what he's feeling but you'll know. Dogs dont hide pain the way cats do (they are notorious for hiding medical issues) but I've also been life long pet owner who has went through arthritis with both dogs and cats. Happens alot. Monty is going to be just fine. Dont panic and dont worry too much. You and Funk are some of the best pet owners Ive ever seen, you treat your doggies better than some people treat their kids. And you pay attention to new info too and implement it. That speaks volumes. And hey, I had a neighbor friend who had a dachshund who was having spine issues and began to not be able to use his hind legs the vet wanted to put him down but they refused and did their own therapy with the dogie. I suggested my handy neighbor make a cart for the dog like I had seen on TV so he could get around and he was so happy runningbaround the yard in it. BUT they did their own physical therapy with him in their hot tub, gave the dog anti-inflammatories and a healthy diet and low and behold the Dachshund got full use of his hind legs again- no surgery!! Things are not always as bleak as they might seem at first. We all learn how to navigate with our physical limitations and still keep moving...Monty will too. and YOU will see very obvious signs when he's in discomfort and that will let you know when to scale back activity so he can rest. I hope knowing that its more common than you may have thought helps, and that even with some joint issues he can still have many more years of playful pup to go! Sending positive energy!! We all love your videos!!! 🐕 🐱
Saw the first few seconds being at night and expected the "well we got a late start"
I've decided that I'm calling this channel " Monty and some guy oot n aboot ".
:D
Was that out in a boat?
@@clearingbaffles no. Read as oot and a boot. Read as " out and about" in a Canadian accent.
@@ebeneezerscrooge8394 for got the "eh?"... :P
@@ebeneezerscrooge8394 oot is my American version of a Canadian saying out. I wonder what a privy would sound like “oot hoose” I wonder how they say it in Quebec. Great country GREAT ally I was in our Navy and we pulled into Esqimalt (I believe that’s the spelling) and we played a different type of baseball I wonder if that’s ow the Blue Jays and ex Expos played it I remember running towards 2nd base with an alcohol twist try as I might I couldn’t run in a straight line to it and realized they could out drink us 😉😷
I’m having surgery tomorrow morning, and I’m so happy that this came out today! It will give me something happy and peaceful to watch this evening. Sending prayers for your sweet boy Montstinky. ❤️
Good Luck with the Surgery 🙏, hope all goes well 💐xxxz
Good luck!
I hope the surgery went well. Get well and GOD Bless. I'll be praying for you. :)
Thank you so much! 🥰 It went very well and I’m healing nicely.
@@KatNerd That's great! ^_^
alright Team MPA, there is a paypal link in the description. lets pay for Montys expensive vet bills!! we owe it to Monty!
If you don’t have PayPal, send him money to his P.O. Box which is also there.
All you need for PayPal is an email address, then it's very easy to send a payment to him🙂.
Hopefully we can help cover the specialist's bills this way.
I don’t mean to seem lame but what “description”? Where do I find any links that you reference?
@@patriciabuckley7488 Hi Patricia, if you click on his logo under the video, then click on 'About Channel' at the top of the screen, then 'Support Channel' it should take you into his PayPal account.
Hope that helps xxxxx
Dude, I have the same thing in my spine! Poor montstinky. You guys sound like you’re onto the treatment. Go you and funk for being such awesome parents.
You and funk are the best momma and poppa a Monty could want. I have every faith Monstinky will be back to his old self in no time. Take it easy guys 🙏🏼❤️
My first dog had spondylitis, it just meant we had to not take him on such long walks. He grew old without getting fat.
You also inspired me to do a camping vlog with my new pup.
"We got a little bit of a late start, 3 hours of sunlight left." Oh Matthew, you always do, unless it's -40 😆🤣😂
Truth!
Hahah I love how you always seem to have a late start 😂
When Sabyr pulled his back leg muscle the vet introduced us to CBD/CBG for dogs. It was amazing and helped him remain calm and focused and eased his pain tremendously. Sending love and well wishes to Monte and gang. ♥♥
:D
@@MatthewPosa i second this cbd worked really well for my doggo too.
That modified sleeping pad battle was the cutest thing I've seen in a while.
:D
Me too. So sweet
Owls hooting.lights flashing and Monty drooling.That makes for a creepy night out camping!Beautiful place.
You guys make me cry the way you play. Monte's gonna be just fine.
OMG. How I LOVE that dog. He reminds me so much of my Maine Coon cat, believe it or not. I love your vids. Love both of the dogs. And Monty is a beaut. God love him. He is a teddy bear. I just want to hug and kiss him and cuddle with him. Animals are truly wonderful companions. No word of a lie. They’re miracles from heaven and better than anything else in this world. Thanks, Matthew, for sharing your camping trips and cooking tips and both of the dogs having adventures. Loving it all!
OMG Monte(y?) snoozing in the canoe with the sunset in the background. What could possibly be more picturesque than that?
When my collie got sick I took him to U W Madison, well worth the 5 hour drive, my vet said best dog care anywhere and he was right. Wonderful people.
:D
Hi Cin,..I have heard the same about Madison..They are some of the best!!!
My 9 year old Beagle recently (a week ago) was diagnosed with TCC...Bladder cancer..vet said I need to go to a specialty vet..took her there and they said University of Missouri was her only hope and get her there NOW!!..she is stable and begining concentrated radiation treatment 5 days a week for a month..long story short its obscenely expensive..but worth every penny to save my lil buddies life..as you Matt, I would move heaven and earth for my buddy...good luck to you and Mr Monty.
I had a vet tell me the same!
I love it when Montstinky rests his chin on the boat - he looks so at peace with the world.
M&M, please take it easy. We all love Monty and want him healthy forever. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
You may want to ask to be put on a cancellation list at the specialist, as you might get in sooner than July. Hugs to you and Monty!
Thanks for making this channel.Its therapy.
Ok that's a bit creepy there...when suddenly Monty went to alert mode and then the light started flickering. 👻
:o
yeah that was weird
Keeping stinky boy Monty in positive healing thoughts and prayers. 💙🙏 My shelties, Aries and Kiara and I, enjoy relaxing and watching y'all. Rescued Kiara last year, at 12 yrs young>> shelties bring such love and joy to one's life, who can resist. She has some paw issues so we do CBD chews, made for joints, which seems to help manage her paw limp alot. Your a great dog parent and Monty is great hands. Thanks always for sharing your wonderful videos. Look forward to each and every video.
This is just the lift I needed - a new camping video with Matthew & Monty is like my favourite music artist dropping their best album yet! Thanks for the Monty update - I hope he knows that there are thousands of people around the world who wish him well x
I don't know how I ended up here, but I'm not leaving.
You won’t regret it 😊
All roads follow Monty...
Go watch his winter camping videos. They are wonderful. Heck, they all are!! This is my go to when I need to relax and just chill!
I've been having health problems lately, but I wanted to say that watching your vids take all the stress and depression away. Thank you for everything you do, and thank you for always being positive. I will always give a thumbs up. Have a good one.
So sorry that your going through a difficult time. I hope and wish the best for you!
You're welcome!
Every time I watch his videos when it gets close to the end I get upset bc I’m not ready for the video to be over.... I WANT MORE!!!!! Lol 😂 which is really sad bc this man puts in a ton of work n does more than a lot of you tubers but when I say he’s the best.... I mean he is THE BEST!!! No joke!
I shouldn’t say sad when I say that I mean I’m being selfish by asking for more when he already does so much
Never change this enter.... we love to watch you hit the tree and say MEAT! All up in there with the seasonings too.
:D
Big ol' leech.
Awhile ago you mentioned you played instruments was love to hear you play by the fire❤️❤️❤️❤️. Don't worry Monty I think is ok😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻
Love little Monty he looked happy and comfortable he was just injoying the out doors
:D
Good thing Monty watches you so closely while you eat just to make sure you don't choke or anything.
Aww poor little Monty ❤️ I Love to see his little head sticking over the edge of the canoe! You can truly see he is so happy ! Smelling the Fresh air, water and loving being out camping with you! Great Video, as ALWAYS!!!!
I hope you understand how relaxing you are to watch. ❤️ I LOVE your camping/survival videos. They just make me feel so cozy. And I’m so happy Monty is here for the adventure! He’s just the sweetest boy ever. 💜 I wish I could do what you do!
I feel so sad for monty having to have a modified sleeping bag fight but it was so cute! Mathew you’re such an awesome dog owner my heart melts every time see you guys. When you gave monty the dry dog food mum was like he’s not gonna eat that he knows he’s out camping 🏕 and he gets good treats lol! Great video thank you 😊 oh and that meal look really great 👍
Wishing you and Monty a happy spring and summer with lots of fishing despite his issues. Soon the specialist will give you all the info you need to manage his condition and that will take a lot of the worry away. You are wonderful dog owners and Monty is a very lucky fellow. He will thrive no matter what.
Can't wait for you to have a son and watch him grow up doing camping videos with you.
Or Daughter
Looks like we almost got a bonus in the last video as your zipper was afraid of heights 😅
Sad to hear Monte is having issues but happy ur finding answers, continuing to send positive vibes and prayers. Get better handsome. 🙏🙏🙏❤❤
We have had two Sheltie's (Chantilly and Fancee). With both dogs, they have developed spinal arthritis, ours was in the backside, that affected the back legs. Hopefully you can find out more. We were told that Sheltie's and there breeds are prone to this type of thing. Chantilly lived to be 16 years old, Fancee is still driving us crazy.
That's good! Did it affect their ability to go and play? Or did they just have to take it easy?
When Chantilly, at about 8 years old could not jump into the car, on the bed, couch, and the stairs became difficult. We gave her glucosamine and condroiden supplements, ( id talk to your vet first) but humans take it for joint health. Our vet calculated per weight how much to give her. Make sure its a good brand, costco worked for us. No need to buy the vet brand.
Oh the other advise we got from the specialist was "motion is lotion" like you said swimming is great, calm walks, but sitting motionless to long causes stiffness and pain.
@@MatthewPosa Matthew, this is good advise from Deborah. When my pups was 9 years old, we took her for a long hike and a few days later, she couldn't move. We thought we were going to have to put her down...didn't know what was wrong. A vet tech told us it could be soreness from the hike and to give her glucosamine. Said it would take about 3 weeks to take affect. Sure enough, after 3 weeks, she was jumpin and playin like nothing happened. 4 years later and we have our old gal still. If you haven't been giving our Monteetee glucosamine yet, it's something worth looking into. Check with Monte's doctor.
It is so good to see you and Monte are both happy.
Monty was like "the hell am going first" at the beginning
:D
Awesome video, and reassuring to hear that you guys know what's up with Monty's limp now. Great to see you and Monty out in the canoe and catching fish, and I got a good laugh out of that camping outfit of long johns, socks and crocks. If this first fishing trip is any indication, maybe this year there'll be more unsuccessful episodes of The Unsuccessful Fishing Show.
:D
So great to see you & the Monty Fluff-bum out camping again. Looks good for the fishing 🐟🎏 this year 👍.
Don't ever apologise for talking too much on your videos, that's why we love you so much.
What you like 🤭☺️, falling in the lake 🙄😊😃, that must have been freezing tho 🥶.
Love the thermals 😁😁😄, sexxeeee 😁😃.
Monty is looking sooo fluffy & cuddly, makes me want to give him a big cuddle.
Lovely video as always, have a great week,. Lots of love
When I saw that smile on your face and Monty next to you in the canoe, I knew things are going to be better.
Well thanks for the full update and not clickbaiting it like most youtubers. He’s lucky as hell to have owners that take care of him so well. You look after him better than many mothers I’ve known! I’ve known a dog just lay there so calm and chill. Seems like he loves rowing.
Favorite way to good Brussel sprouts is to cut in half, toss with olive oil and throw in a 425-degree oven. They get nice and crispy. Season with some sea salt and down the hatch.
24:51 The smile of a man who caught two fish
Months to find out about Monty, oh so sorry! He is so cute!! thank you for sharing.
Absolutely great video! Matthew you are a goofball and I love it💜 This made my day! Big big hugs to you and Monty, Rueger and Funk💜💜 I love you guys💜💜💜
Thank you for loving him so much! Though I see the worry and hear it in your voice..even in the laughter. We all love him and you. I know you can tell . Just know the tribe worries and prays with you. Yes sexiest thing guy in long johns and crocs LOL. Be well.
I happened upon your channel when you were camping with your buddies in -40 and was hooked! I absolutely love how much you love your fur babies and how you and Monty are BFF’s! I will pray for a great recovery for Monty - he’s so beautiful ❤️❤️🙏😊
Made my day to come home from work and see you and Monty 🐶 so cup of tea and ferrero rocher chocolate all ready to watch a fresh adventure with you, big kisses for Stinky 💋💋🇬🇧🇬🇧❤❤
"Why are you so cute, Monty?" Keep posting that calming and cozy videos, Matthew!
Ok Matt I have had to quit working after 32 years with the exact same thing. Now life is by no means over. I just had to learn to do things differently. Lifting climbing stairs etc. The most important thing is for Monte to feel loved! And yes I know he does!!!!!!!
Tuesday, 5:18 pm EST and already 12,370 views! Just got home from work & gonna relax watching some Montyvision. ❤️
Thanks Matt.
Lol Monty's stance when you were blowing up the pad, he knows.
:D
What a beautiful sunset 👍👀👀😁😍an Monty is in a total state of chillin👀
I feel for monty .We have the same spine condition swimming is great and oh yes the stiffness especially in the morning .Try and keep his hips and lower spine warm as possible when it's cold definitely in the winter 🥶 and monty will be ok.Its funny how similar 🐕and humans are and yes I am crazy too ,Monty.I push myself untill I can't walk for a week sometimes but if I don't every now and then ya tend to give up because that pain will put you in your spot if you let it.Sending Positivity and hugs to Monty 😍
My dog Baggy, a Great Dane cross Boerbul also had back problems. The vet told me it's common in big dogs. She had like a joint removed from one leg and she was fine. Now she has this growth (not cancer...calcium build up) which gets bigger monthly. Really hard to deal with. The specialist said that as long as she eats, pees and poos 💩she should be fine. But, her days are coming closer and closer to D day. She's my soul mate and can feel Mathews pain and stress over Monty. How we love our doggy 🐕 family.
Appreciate your uploads Matt, always a highlight of the day.
Our animals are Family members. Best wishes to Monty. Another fun day you spent together. 🐶
Sending healing prayers and best wishes for Monty. I know he will be well taken care of by you and Funk.
You are such a good dog dad! Hope Monty gets better.
Monty and you make my work day bearable! Thanks for sharing your adventures!
:D
Hey Matthew, your fly was open in your previous video. Have a great day!
Thank you for giving us the Monty update....Poor Boy. 🙏🙏❤️❤️🤗🤗 to the Monty boy! It’s beautiful up there! ......🤣😂🤣Harry Otter🤣😂🤣 your so funny!
Praying for the best for Monty. Love you buddy. ❤🐾❤🐾❤
Is this the ‘Monty’s Adventure’s’ show everyone’s been raving about? Who’s the guy? 👀🤣
:D
ha ha ha
Love this! Monty’s my spirt animal! Mr posa thanks for the adventures!!
🤣🤣🤣
😁
"What could have caused the hole?" I haven't laughed that hard in a long time! Thanks man!
You truly know how to live and enjoy the moments you are in. Saved this video to watch this evening after work. You are more genuinely entertaining than shows on TV. Thank you for these videos
Couldn't have said it better myself 👍😃
Thank you for taking the time to let us know how Monty is doing. I’ve been praying for Monty and I will continue to pray for him. 🐶⛺️🌳🌲💖🙏
Happy 420 video most likely the only time this will ever happen or be able to comment about it in one of matts videos!!!
:O
Your videos are the best, for real!!!
:D
Winter camping is my favorite! But I'll take what I can get! Love your videos! Prayers to the Monty!!!
:D
I was so proud of you when you poured the pan butter over your meal...it was TOTALLY needed. Fat=Flavor, especially the fond from the pan.
Wow this is the great start of the year for you ! 3 trouts 😱 Looking forward to you next trips. Hope Monty can join you too but even if he cant Im sure we would enjoy your solo trips just as much . Love y'all !
😅LOL Matt....when do YOU NOT get a "little late start"??!!😉😆😉😆😉😆
Lmao Late start Matt and Wiggle Butt
:D
Lol the fact you are so calm after falling in the water is amazing to me🙌🏼 positive vibes love it😭🤣💖✌🏼
I love your videos. They are so soothing, educating, & fun.
I am a disabled police officer & have agoraphobia (fear of going outside). I have PTSD, PANIC & ANXIETY. SEIZURES FROM THE SEVERE HEAD TRAMA WHILE CHASING A MOTORCYCLE. I WAS NOT DRIVING. My head went through the windshield.
Thank you for sharing you & your life
I am sorry to hear that! You are welcome!
Posa, your fly was down during your Sunday update!! I’ve been dying to tell you that!!
Same here! 😂
I tried to tweet that at him on Sunday but I don't think he's active on twitter lol
Lol i saw that and my first thought was wonder how many are going to say it in the comments.
He probably did that on purpose. 🤣
Oh my goodness, I searched for "keeping your zipper up" hacks to send to you, then I found you turned off your comments.
Thank you again Mr Posa.
You're welcome!
I love how excited you are during this trip! You can blab away all you want. We’re here for it 🤗 Thanks for sharing this with us and for all of your hard work that goes into making these videos. You’re awesome! 👏👏👏
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 for monty boy. Such a beautiful dog 🐕💞
Judging by the first minute and a half of this video I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that you got a bit of a late start?
*edit: yep. Called it. 😁
P.S. All the best to Monty. Poor little furball. I had to laugh at how disgusted he looked at that dry Kibble you gave him in the morning, though! 😂😂
PS: Absolutely 💯 about swimming, check with your vet/Google re:physical therapy pools for dogs (they really do exist!!)❤🐶❤🐶❤
♥ That addiction works it's magic the same for all hiking and outdoor gear as well!
Prayers for Monty to have a full recovery! Love this channel!
“But I can’t have the tent too close to the fire ring..(And then the Fish fever spiked into sheer madness).... “MONTY IT’S OK!! what’s a few ember burns on the tent, as long as there’s fish out there....” hahahahaha.. too funny Matthew!!
Yaaaaaas the Monty Show (featuring Matt)
:D
Nooooo! The Monty must get better soon! 😭😭😭 Please take good care of him! Sending you and Monty the best from South Korea. 😍😘👍🏻
If monte needs more stimulation without exercising you can try dog puzzles. They make these toys with compartments that the dog need to lift or pull to open to find a treat. My dog loves them and they are good for working their minds.
Yayyyyy so excited to see y'all in the canoe 🛶. Prayers for Monte. This is my favorite thing!!
:D
Soo excited for another adventure man..
:D
11:31 y’all are good dog parents Thank you. I’m praying for you all.
:D
Everytime I watch these spring time canoe camping trips... I wish I lived closer to lakes and wish I had a Canoe.. lmao... hope Monty keeps getting better... he's the best
