Jaxson, Archie, & Red

Yesterday we welcomed Jaxson. Jaxson is a 125 lbs., 5 year-old, Flat-Coated Retriever. He came into The Fort confidently and made his way into our Large Dog Program. He began to meet the other pups within the Large Dog Program and was cool, calm, and friendly. Jaxson socialized throughout his stay here and we hope to see him return soon.

Today we welcomed two Boston Terriers named Archie and Red. These little rascals came into our Medium Dog Program and were able to meet their look-alike Georgie. As soon as they met Georgie, they immediately saw some similarities in her and began to play. Take a gander below at the fun they had! I'll bet these guys went home happy after their first day.

We scored some great clips for your viewing pleasure today.

In the Big Roll, Red and Theodore had one "raucous-reunion."

The Medium Roll was alive and kickin' as always, especially early in the A.M. with Shirley and Yuki.

Also, in the Medium Roll Play Area, we had the opportunity to bust out the "Herding Ball." Many dogs enjoy it, but today it was most definitely Jackson's favorite!

Be well,

Two speeds: stop and go go go!

Last night things got pretty cuddly with these sweet sleepers! Cayenne and Louis were best buds, and Tikvah really liked squeezing into the tiny bed, haha. Reminds me of a certain bulldog that stays with us ;-)

The sleepiness ended when we opened up shop for the day's daycare dogs, and we got some great peeks at the action in all three areas. Upstairs, Marlee and Oliver were trying to figure out how to play fetch and share at the same time. Hilarity ensues!

In the Medium Pack, Tikvah was running amok with pals Lucy and Phoebe. These girls definitely know how to have a good time.

Large pups Max and Red had a "clash of the titans" in the big roll. These boys had a great time together, and were a really well-matched pair.

After this rip-roarin' day, we'll have some more cute sleepers tonight I bet!

Sunday's Assesments

We had a couple of fine new dogs start at The Fort on Sunday.

First we met Red. He is a enthuisatic, four month old, forty pound, Yellow Labrador Retriever. Red is a lab pup with great energy! He fit right in, right away, with some of Fort Fido's most fast and furious players. Red gets along superb with others, he will be able to do well in the Medium or Big Roll. That is always a plus for us. Outstanding job Red, we hope to see you back soon.



Later in the day, we were introduced to Magy. She is a six year old, sixty pound, Collie Mix. Magy is brown and black with a white chest. This gal has a very sweet temperament. Her entrance into the pack was impeccable and she is well versed in "Dog Speak". Magy was quite calm and confident around the others. Although she didn't play, she seemed to enjoy the experience. Magy will make a swell addition to our Medium Roll.

Have a great week,

-Grant
