Santa Claus is coming to town...

Rather, "Santa Butters", is coming to town hahaha! You may recognize Buddy, he is one of Fort Fido's poster boys. He is a very handsome American Eskimo that has been coming to The Fort for years. You just can't beat his striking look! It's been awesome to use pictures of Buddy for marketing, specifically our Website/Blog Logo. He is one photogenic little canine. Twas hilarious this morning when Butters came in as Kris Kringle, we had to get a pic of it.


Long time Fort attendee, Black Pearl, brought us in some excellent Christmas Cookies. Thank you! Ironically enough, Hope, with Dave's glasses as a prop, looked very similar to the "Cool Santa" depicted on the sugary dough haha! Nancy had to score a photo of that one.




I'll leave you with four clips of The Rolls. Two from the Medium, one from the Big and one long one from the Little Roll.









Cheers,

P.S. Just a side note, other dogs in our Website/Blog Logo include (From left to Right) Faramir, Mr. Bingley, Lola and Ruger. All but Mr. Bingley still attend and have been doing so since 2006. Thanks dogs for looking so good! ;)
P.P.S. Here is Buddy from 2009 in another costume lol!

<<< Bella The Great >>>

Bella the Great Dane had her assessment this morning. She is a adorable, sweet and spunky gal. Bella is six and a half months old and already 86 pounds! She is going to be one big girl! Her first steps into the Big Roll went smooth... Here she is taking on Ruger and Dakota. Too fun!



Take it easy,

P.S. Remember this amazing rescue I mentioned last week... Here is a little follow up, interesting.

Ruger & Dakota

Ruger has been coming to Fort Fido since we opened! He started in our second week back in September of 2006. A rescue dog from Lil’ Waif Puppy Rescue in Bothell, Ruger is a very handsome Lab / German Shepard mix. A few adjectives for Ruger are loving, loyal and confident. He is a great daycare dog that takes no guff from youngins in the pack.

Six months after Ruger started attending Fort Fido, his owners were bitten once again by the puppy bug. They went back up to Lil’ Waif and picked up Dakota. Dakota is described by her owners as a German Shepard, Boarder Collie Mutt. Fido staff describe her as a high-energy, spunky, and strong bitch (pun intended)! She absolutely loves Ruger, the pair remind us of a twin brother and sister relationship.

Ruger & Dakota are just two of the many great dogs who attend daycare at the fort. We plan to introduce many more of Fido’s friends as this blog develops. Take care,

-Grant
P.S. If you are looking for something to do tomorrow in the South Sound this may or may not be up your alley. :)
