An Early Happy Birthday...

 

To Miss Sophie-Alice! She is a long time doodley friend of The Fort. Sophie turns a tender six years old this coming Thursday. I wanted to mention this now, because I will have a few new pups to blog about over the next two days. So anywho, way to go girl! Here's to another six years, that I know, you most certainly have in you lol! ;) Sophie Alice is one healthy and super-fit canine... Thanks to her mother's frequent and lengthy walks, weekly day trips to Fort Fido, and even Overnight stays. A special thank you goes out to Sophie's owners, Sue and John, for their continuous support over the last five+ years. We truly appreciate it. Thank you for your business.

Again, Happy Birthday Sophie-Alice!

Take it easy y'all,

Welcome to the pack, Ginger!

Today we welcomed Ginger, a two and a half year old Lab Mix. She came to see us because of the expert advice of  her buddy, Sophie Alice. Ginger is a very sweet tempered, and curious pup. She had lots of new scents to check out, not only in the lobby but back with the pack as well.

 

 

Not quick to jump into play, but very nice and spoke great dog! I'm sure that once Ginger becomes accustomed to the environment here at The Fort she will start to open up and play more with the other Big Rollers. Ginger was lucky to have found and been found by such amazing owners, at the humane society approx. 6 1/2 months ago. We're happy to have her and looking forward to seeing her again soon!

FFFFriday

It has been a busy week for us here at Fort Fido but or course that is a good thing. March tends to be our busiest month at The Fort and things are already picking up as we get halfway through February. There has been a number of new dogs and old dogs returning... We have also been busy sprucing up for our open house on Sunday March 6th. We hope that you all will attend. We truly appreciate your continuous support.

Evy (kumpi@earthlink.net), owner of Kumpi emailed me a impressive video clip. Check it out here. What a neat trick, that dog can really dunk! He dribbles darn good too!

I'll leave you with a snippet from today's Medium Roll starring Rainier, Walter, Romeo, Otto and Sophie-Alice. With special appearances by Barkley's and Chewy's head haha.



Have a great weekend,

-Grant
P.S. Nobody forget Valentines Day now! Your special sweetie could get miffed if you did lol, it is this coming Monday the 14th, as usual. I'm glad I have just reminded myself. ;)
