Tom Hanks is one of the biggest and most recognizable celebrities in Hollywood. Throughout his long career as an actor, he has starred in several critically acclaimed films, including Forrest Gump, Cast Away, Catch Me if You Can and Saving Private Ryan. More recently, he has played the role of Robert Langdon in the film adaptation of Dan Brown novels The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons and Inferno. His undeniable talent and ability to turn movies into a sure hit has made him among the most successful and prolific actors of all time.

But other than his immense talent in acting, Tom Hanks is also renowned for being a dog lover. A lot of his fans got a glimpse of this trait in the 1989 buddy cop film Turner & Hooch, where Hanks starred alongside Beasley the Dog. The two played the titular characters, a cop-K9 duo who develops an unexpected bond with each other. Other than Beasley, two other canine actors had to play the role of Hooch, which prompted Hanks to spend time with the dogs so that they would learn to react to him. The film became an instant hit and helped boost the popularity of canine-centric films. It also highlighted how well Hanks gets along with dogs.

In real life, Hanks is no different from his character. He owned a white German Shepherd, which he called Monty, who has been a constant companion for him and his family. While little is known about Monty’s background and where he was acquired, he is often photographed with his owner on walks and occasionally featured on Hanks’ social media accounts. Hanks has also spoken about his dog in the past. In 2009, he mentioned that he considered leaving their home in California due to a stinky smell brought about by a skunk who attacked Monty and his other dog.

Unfortunately, on January 2012, Hanks shared through his Twitter and WhoSay accounts that his beloved Monty has passed away. Along with a photograph of the pooch, he wrote a beautiful tribute sharing his love for Monty and how devastated he is by the loss. According to Hanks, Monty had a noble demeanor and deep brown eyes. Hanks also referred to him as the “finest dog ever”. After sharing the lovely tribute for Monty, Hanks received an outpour of support from his fans, who gave him words of encouragement and expressed their sympathies for his loss.
