Stella and then Lucy!

 (We liked Stella's "top knot-do", real Shih Tzuy lol, now if only this pic did her justice!)

Yesterday, we had Stella in for her Assessment Day. She is a nine month old, eleven pound, black and white colored, Shih Tzu. This regal little gal hung out with us upstairs in The Fort's Little Roll. There, she did quite well, acting particularly calm and balanced for such a young dog. Stella didn't get into too much play, however she seemed to enjoy spending time with the pack. Her owners are doing a fine job raising her up. Shih Tzus are a very "headstrong" breed, that can become quite demanding in the wrong hands lol... Lucky for Stella, and us, she has some strong leadership at home. Way to go guys, keep it up!

(Lucy had somewhat of a "Dingo" look about her.)

This morning, we met with Lucy for her Assessment Day. She is a three year old, fifty pound, German Shepherd Mix... That just so happens to be the "aunt" of Fort Fido regular Kingsley. Lucy tried the Big Roll on for size right away, and liked it. She explored the play area, and then met with the other canines that arrived, in a kind and proper fashion. As time went by and the pack grew, Lucy even got to see "nephew Kingsley" join the mix lol. We believe, given time and consistency, that Lucy can become even more playful, and can have even more fun here. We'd love to see her really "bust out" in future visits.

Both Stella and Lucy, are great new additions to our pack, nice work ladies!

Be well,

* Stellar New Board & Clips *

Checkout the new chalkboard we got up in our lobby. It displays all of our current rates and services... It's been a long time coming, we should have had this baby up years ago to avoid any "confusion" haha.

Thank you to my wonderful girlfriend for the help on this project. She built most of it, and, kindly and lovingly scribed the info. onto the board, with magnificent penmanship I might add. Absolutely beautiful! We used these new-to-us "chalk markers" for the project and they are really cool. I highly recommend them for all of your chalk-board-writing needs lol. The fine folks over at Narrows Brewing CO. recommend them to us. ;)


In other happenings around The Fort, and in video, we have three hits from "The Captain", a funny one of Kingsley and Theodore, and, a cute clip of Rusty and Tucker playing.

 

Cheers,

- Bona fide Buddy -

Our newest recruit, Buddy, had his assessment this morning. He is a nice, three year old, seventy-five pound, Rottweiler and Labrador Retriever Mix. A Dog Daycare Veteran, Buddy acted happy and excited upon entering The Fort's Big Roll. I believe a bit of deja vu set in for Buddy, because he totally seemed as if he'd been here to play before. As more and more members of the Big Roll Pack arrived, Buddy was ecstatic. He speaks pretty good "DOG", which allows him to make friends quickly and easily. Buddy played with a few different canines including Beau, Kingsley, Marty, and others. With that said, Buddy is welcome back anytime. Good stuff!

Here's some short film of Buddy having a blast.
