Yesterday morning, The Fort Crew got to meet Donar. He is a very active, two year old, seventy pound, German Wirehaired Pointer. Upon entering our lobby doors, it was clear that Donar was not shy, and was ready to rock! He stepped into the Big Roll easily, ready to get his "Dog" on lol. Although he vibrates excitedly with energy, Donar is very polite, and has keen canine communication skills. He made quite a few pals in the Big Dog Play Are, and seemed to take pleasure in being here. We look forward to having Donar in again, and we hope he got a bit of his energy burnt off. Good work Donar, rest up, we'll see you for some Overnight Boarding soon!
Happy Monday, I hope that everyone's Monday is off to a good start. The dogs at Fort Fido are enjoying their time with the pack today while their owners are away. The day should be a nice, warm, and comfy one today at a high of 72 degrees Fahrenheit. While out-and-about with your dog today make sure to keep them hydrated in this warm weather. During their stay at The Fort the pups are hard at play, take a look at some of the videos below.

Today we assessed the clever Indy! This fella is a three year old, seventy-five pound, Labrador Retriever and German Shepherd Mix. Indy came through the doors curiously. We introduced him to the Big Roll Play Area, where he proceeded to explore with his nose to the ground. After letting him acclimate for a bit, it was time for Indy to begin to meet the pack. Meeting and greeting is no problem for the very sociable Indy, he speaks good "Dog", and makes canine buddies effortlessly... He proved this, by meeting with our XL Fort Fido regular, Theodore, first, and then becoming playmates with him almost instantly. It was good stuff to see! For the rest of the morning, Indy continued to enjoy the company of the other dogs and play wholeheartedly. Indy can get a lot out of attending Dog Daycare and we are pleased to have him here, hopefully he'll return for another visit soon.

This morning, we were up bright and early to Assess Maxx. He is an irresistibly-cute, three month old, twenty-one pound, English Bulldog. This little fella is going to grow up to be one big and strong canine, but for now, he's just a small pup. Maxx is here to hone his canine-communication skills and have a good time exercising. To ease him into the joint, we had Maxx start out in our Medium Roll Play Area. Once inside, he explored eagerly, knowing he'd be meeting with some other canines soon. After letting him get his bearings, we had Maxx meet up with pack members Stella and Max (Mue). That combination of dogs proved to be just perfect for Maxx. They began to wrestle play within minutes of meeting one another. Given strong leadership, time, and consistency, Maxx should grow up to be quite a calm and balanced adult dog. He has a great temperament, and is the perfect age to get into Dog Daycare. He'll get a lot out of socializing at Fort Fido. Welcome Maxx, swell job today pal!Mark%26Sabrina.jpg)

Hey y'all, congrats on making it to Friday lol... I'm going to make this post short and sweet. Today we met up with Bear for his first day. He is a very striking, three year old, fifty-one pound, Alaskan Malamute and German Shepherd Mix. Mr. Bear did well in our Big Roll during his Assessment. He got along with the other canines nicely, and exhibited fine canine communication skills. Although Bear didn't get into too much playing, he did seem to enjoy his time at The Fort. Given strong leadership, time, and consistency, we believe that Bear can get even more out of future visits to Fort Fido.
