Beautiful Beau

Early this morning we met yet another fun pup-- a sweet cream colored Golden-Retriever mix named Beau. He didn't waste any of his time getting right in to play with the medium dogs, and went right to work putting his charms on with Rudy. They were fast friends, and had a great morning together!



Beau fit right in with our pack and daycare environment, and it should go a long way towards keeping him happy and entertained.

Here's to even more fun days in the future!

This Week's Cool Clips

We caught a couple of great clips over the past few days that we haven't had a chance to slip in here, with all of the new dogs coming in! So here's a great peek at some of our friends from this weekend and earlier this week--

We caught Maggie on tape tearing it up with pups Buddy and Jack. Maggie is an older gal, and it's great to see that she can still keep up with the wild young'uns!

Next up is this cute clip of Tikvah and Rudy, who were boarding together for a few days. These ladies are just the best of friends, and really enjoy each other's company.

Lastly, we got a hilarious look at Jackson chasing the herding ball. Sometimes it is really surprising which dogs will take to the herding ball, I didn't expect this little Frenchie to get so worked up by it! He didn't even notice Yuki trying to play with him, lol.

We'll see you back with more news and clips on our next blog post!

Lounge Lizards

Yes, at times, thankfully, the wily canines at Fort Fido do take it down a notch on occasion. Hahaha! Here are some cute and recent examples. Most dogs that attend, go from amped to "dog tired" multiple times during their visit. It's a good thing. ;)

Rudy and Zipper = Cuddle Bugs.

In the Big Roll, the mighty Big Roll...

Gordo and Murphy being too adorable.

Who me?

Somewhat dog related lol... New Red Wolf Pups are making their summer debut at the Point Defiance Zoo. How exciting!

 

 My, they are some amazing looking animals. Click here for the story and video.

 

 Now, now... Leave you stereotypical off-color jokes at the door for this next thought of mine.. ;)

I stumbled across this funny looking pic of a Lab longing for some Korean BBQ. I understand him fully haha! Man, if you haven't tried it before, you absolutely must. My family and I hit up the best KBBQ place often. I went there for the first time 13 years ago, with my friend and his family. It has to be the best in the state due to our rich, local, Korean Culture. Chung Ki Wa is the name and it is on South Tacoma Way. Bring your family/friends, an open mind and your appetite, get the Pork Belly and Kalbi. If you have taste buds, I promise you will not be disappointed lol.

Refined Rudy

This week has also started off with an early-morning assessment. Dogs seem to be flooding in lol.

Here is Rudy!

He is a kind, five year old, seventy pound, Vizsla. Rudy spent his time in the Big Roll and meshed well with the pack. He played a bit here and there but was tricky to catch on camera. Rudy got along well with the other dogs. It was quite apparent that he had been to dog daycare in the past. We enjoyed having Rudy in today and he is welcome back anytime. Hopefully there will be even more play out of him once he finds his niche.

Enjoy that warmth!

Rudy & New Toys!

Brittany spaniels have mucho energía! They can duck, dive, spin and sprint like no other. The fort has had a couple of Brittanys pass through it's doors over the years. This morning we introduced one to the pack named Rudy. Rudy was no exception to the Brittany's upbeat and highly active temperament. Although he was only six months old and around 25 pounds, Rudy was started in the "Big Roll". He got it figured out quick and had a wonderful time!

In other happenings... We just received some entertaining new toys(scroll down to see)! Who knows how long these will hold up but they look cute, should be worth a few moments of fun for your canine companion.

Cheers,
