Brilliant Bella

Please welcome Bella to the medium roll pack! =) Bella is a 3 year-old, 19 pound, chihuahua/Jack Russell terrier. Because Bella hasn't been exposed to many dogs, she wasn't sure what to think of The Fort. Although it took her some time to build up the courage to greet the others in medium roll, she seemed  to  relax and enjoy her time mingling. We look forward to having Bella return for lots of fun.

Have a nice day,

Iris

 

This morning Fort Fido's crew got to meet Iris. She is a sweet and pretty, one year old, ten pound, blonde and white colored, Chihuahua Mix. We led Iris to the Little Roll Play Area upstairs. Up there, she was bit hesitant at first, wondering where the heck she was, and what she was supposed to do. Thankfully, after only a few minutes, Iris began to "blossom". She met with Alexander, Rusty, Cisco, and then Walter... Those early morning guests are kindly canines, that helped Iris feel quite calm and balanced here. Fitting in with the pack well, Iris really started to enjoy her visit as the morning progressed. She socialized happily and seemed to have a good time. The Fort is thrilled to have Iris join our ranks. We believe she'll have even more fun here, and bust out into some play, in future visits.

Be well,

Lola

Lola came to the The Fort for her Assessment today. She is a six year old, ten pound, fawn colored, Chihuahua Mix. Lola is really cute and sweet, and kind of reminds us of a female Cortez lol! Upstairs in the Little Roll, Lola sniffed around a lot, finding out everything she could about her new-found play area. As other canines began to arrive, Lola seemed excited to greet them. She met with them properly, and had no problems socializing. Towards the end of her stay, she even began to bust out into a little bit of play. We plan on seeing her for some future Overnight Boarding visits, and believe that she'll really have a blast on her next go around. Swell job today Lola, the Fort Fido crew is happy to have ya, and we look forward to seeing you again.

Have a nice weekend,

A Pack Of Six - Part One - Half a sixpack

This Monday has started out with a bang here at The Fort! We have three new dogs, of the same family, all in for their Assessments this morning. They are half, of a six-dog-pack, that we are assessing today and tomorrow. Get this, today's three are all Chihuahuas!

First up, meet Rouge, he is a one year old, ten pound, brindle, Chihuahua Mix. Although he is the latest addition to his owner's pack, he is doing well so far. Upstairs in the Little Roll, Rouge was the most curious and confident. He got to exploring things right away, and enjoyed playing during ball time.

Coco Sophia, or "Coco" for short, is about four years old, she is seven pounds, and is beige in color. This Chihuahua gal was a bit more cautious than her "brother", when entering the small dog play area. After a bit of time passed, she began to relax into her new surroundings.

Last but not least this morning, was Fiona, she is the oldest of the three Chihuahuas, at about seven years of age. She is a lovely light cream color and weighs eight pounds. She too did a fine job at Fort Fido today, but did take the longest to warm-up to the situation.

All three of today's dogs are rescues, so their ages may not be 100% accurate. These canines are quite lucky to have found their owner, and mostly importantly, their forever home. Way to go, and way to rescue, much respect!

Fortunately for us, all three of today's new canines seemed to get comfortable here rather quickly. They are all fun little dogs, that should get much enjoyment out of our pack and facilities. Fingers crossed, that the other three members of their pack, will do as good tomorrow!

Happy Indigenous People's Day!
