My name is Ryan, I've been working at The Fort for about two months now, and I will be posting on the blog from time to time.

I am pleased to announce that we have gotten Fort Fido vinyl stickers, and would be more than happy to hand them out to you and your friends!

 

 So come on in to receive your FREE stickers! Good for anything! Cars, Windows, Laptops, Even Children!

I just got back from an absolutely glorious mini-vacation over the pass... I went to Leavenworth, then Ellensburg, for hiking, camping, swimming, a wedding, and general merry-making lol. It was a wonderful time. However, I couldn't believe the weather I left here, amazing! Glad I wasn't the only one experiencing the sun.

Although I didn't really participate in any official Cinco de Mayo activities... Upon my return, I did check out some funny/cute Cinco de Mayo "pet related" clips and pics. My hope is that at least one of these will crack ya a smile, or give you a chuckle. They did me!

All for now, be well,

Some Funny Videos

 

Here is an awesome automatic ball launcher a guy invented for his dog Jerry.

Have a great week,

Rudy Romps aRound!

If you remember, we met Miss Rudy last Wednesday, and we've been waiting for her to bust out the moves as she has been staying with us these past few days. Although during the daytime, she is a sweet and mild-mannered girl, once nighttime rolls around she sheds her "Clark Kent" persona and takes on the roll of Superdog! Check out this awesome clip of her and Buckwheat having an after-hours romp.

I guess that for this lovely Basset, it's all about the after-party. So glad to see her doing well!

Doing Double Duty-- Two great new pups!

 

Our Medium Pack got one pup bigger, with the addition of gregarious Goldendoodle pup Tucker. This adorable four-month-old had a great time, and really let his fun personality show while romping with Tikvah in the morning. The nice weather today sure made me feel like romping too! He is definitely a fantastic addition to our pups, and is going to keep having a grand ol' time with us. 



 

The little ones upstairs had the pleasure of meeting little Havanese Molly. Everybody up there was tearing it up, and this high-spirited little girl just could not resist joining in! When Dixie and Buckwheat were tearing it up in the early morning, Molly just had to get in on the action. Check out this cute clip of her learning the ropes.

 



 

The Fort will certainly benefit from these two great additions--it's so much fun to keep meeting new dogs and to see how they can all benefit from the social interaction at daycare.

 

Now go enjoy that sunshine!

A few Pics and Birthday Wishes :-)

Gotta start out with a laugh!

We have some great pictures that I've been waiting for an opportunity to share with you guys-- check these out!

The Ray of Death Strikes again!

We also want to make sure we wish a happy birthday to Grant-- another year older and wiser, and another year dedicated to making sure that Fort Fido stays on top! It's great working with you, and I hope that you have an awesome birthday.

Enjoy the warm weather, even if the sun hides out a little bit!

P.S.-- New copies of the Pet Connection are available in the Fort Fido lobby! These are a cool, local, bi-monthly pet newspaper. If you haven't picked one up, summer is a great time to start. My favorite part is always the calendar, showing cool pet-related events going on in May and June.

Radical Rudy!

 

Rudy is an adorable tri-color Basset Hound that came to visit with us this morning. She wasn't too sure of why she was getting up so early this morning, I know that an unexpected early start can put me off sometimes! Although she was somewhat tentative, Rudy spoke good "dog" and was an effective communicator, which is a fundamental building block for being able to play and interact with other pups in the daycare environment. She didn't bust out those moves quite yet, but she has a great foundation, and will hopefully find her feet here in a jiffy.

We'll be seeing her soon for some overnight stays!
