3. He is a dog , but he behaves like a human
being. He express his disapproval for going up
the river in his own way . It is because unlike
human being he dose not have any liking for
the beautiful scenes of nature, does he smoke
like a human being .
5. He is not allowed to chase a rat . He also dosen’t
like the idea of being pushed on the boardby the
three friends when he goes to sleep . Initially

7. Montmerency is not portrayed as a mere dog.In face, he is treated at par
with the human members of the rowing party.He is a fox-terrier who are
clever,adventurous and fighters
Montmerency does not like cats.Once he saw a big black cat.He began to
run after the poor cat.The cat showed no hurry.It sat down in the middle of
the road.The look of the cat was such that Montmorency had to stop and
look back at the cat.After a while,the cat went away.montmorency came
back,embarrased.If anybody now says "cats" to Monmorency,he shrinks
and looks up piteously at him as if to say "please don 't".
Montmorencyis adventurous.He cannot let any challenge
unresponded.Whenever he saw the boiling kettle,it seemed to challenge
him.He got an opportunity once to seize it by the spout.With a loud yelp left
the boat and took a round of the island,running and stopping every now
and then to bury his nose in cool mud.From that day he began to dread the
kettle.
