My dog, Monty, has always been such a character. We adopted him from a rescue when he was ten months old, and he just has the biggest personality. When tasked with animating a short story, I knew I wanted to incorporate Monty into it. I chose to have him pack his things, catch a flight, and take a trip to Chicago. The city of Chicago also holds a special place in my heart, and I felt that combining both Monty and Chicago would be particularly meaningful to me.
