Some good ones!

I've collected a few awesome dog links and clips over the last week or so... They most definitely entertained me, hopefully they'll do the same for you. The Australian Postman one has a bit of "adult language" in it, but it's certainly worth a view. Enjoy!

Lola

Lola came to the The Fort for her Assessment today. She is a six year old, ten pound, fawn colored, Chihuahua Mix. Lola is really cute and sweet, and kind of reminds us of a female Cortez lol! Upstairs in the Little Roll, Lola sniffed around a lot, finding out everything she could about her new-found play area. As other canines began to arrive, Lola seemed excited to greet them. She met with them properly, and had no problems socializing. Towards the end of her stay, she even began to bust out into a little bit of play. We plan on seeing her for some future Overnight Boarding visits, and believe that she'll really have a blast on her next go around. Swell job today Lola, the Fort Fido crew is happy to have ya, and we look forward to seeing you again.

Have a nice weekend,

Stella and then Lucy!

 (We liked Stella's "top knot-do", real Shih Tzuy lol, now if only this pic did her justice!)

Yesterday, we had Stella in for her Assessment Day. She is a nine month old, eleven pound, black and white colored, Shih Tzu. This regal little gal hung out with us upstairs in The Fort's Little Roll. There, she did quite well, acting particularly calm and balanced for such a young dog. Stella didn't get into too much play, however she seemed to enjoy spending time with the pack. Her owners are doing a fine job raising her up. Shih Tzus are a very "headstrong" breed, that can become quite demanding in the wrong hands lol... Lucky for Stella, and us, she has some strong leadership at home. Way to go guys, keep it up!

(Lucy had somewhat of a "Dingo" look about her.)

This morning, we met with Lucy for her Assessment Day. She is a three year old, fifty pound, German Shepherd Mix... That just so happens to be the "aunt" of Fort Fido regular Kingsley. Lucy tried the Big Roll on for size right away, and liked it. She explored the play area, and then met with the other canines that arrived, in a kind and proper fashion. As time went by and the pack grew, Lucy even got to see "nephew Kingsley" join the mix lol. We believe, given time and consistency, that Lucy can become even more playful, and can have even more fun here. We'd love to see her really "bust out" in future visits.

Both Stella and Lucy, are great new additions to our pack, nice work ladies!

Be well,

Bailey Day

This morning we welcomed Bailey into The Fort. Bailey is one cute 22-pound golden retriever pup! Bailey came in with no worries this morning and got right to playing with Georgie within the medium roll. When Georgie saw Baxter, she was ready to greet and play with Baxter. Take a gander of their playfulness below.

We look forward to seeing Bailey return to Fort Fido to play some more!

Have an awesome day and stay warm.

Mabel & Harlowe

Here are two cuties, that we met up with today for their Assessments. Meet Mabel and Harlowe, what great names!

Mabel is a one year old, thirteen pound, Havanese and Shih Tzu Mix, AKA, a Havashu.

Harlowe is a three year old, sixteen pound, Lhasa Apso and Maltese Mix, AKA, a Lhatese.

Mabel is a bit more spunky than her "brother" Harlowe, more social, and much more interested in play. She even started to chase a ball around a bit during Ball Time.

Harlowe on the other hand, is more laid-back and reserved when compared to Mabel. He was fine with the pack, but didn't seem too interested in any rebel-rousing lol.

Both Mabel and Harlowe are great dogs, that are welcome to attend Fort Fido anytime. Given some time and consistency, they should get even more comfortable here. We hope that they can extract much more fun from future Fort visits.

Have a nice weekend, GO HAWKS!

Boris!

 

(Other than sporting all-black, today's Boris, was nothing like the Rocky & Bullwinkle villain lol.)

Meet Boris! He is an extremely handsome, nine month old, seventy pound, Black Russian Terrier. This striking canine, stayed with us today in The Fort's Big Roll. There, he meandered about the place, meeting and greeting with the pack. Boris was quite comfortable with the experience, but unfortunately wasn't ready to get into any play. He's very well mannered, but maybe too much so lol, we really wanted to see him get to playing, and hopefully he will in future visits. One neat fact, is that Boris, just so happens to be the "little brother" of the beautiful, Zariah, who has been a Fort Fido member for some time now... What a neat and not too common breed, very cool!

Good job today Boris buddy, we'll see you next time.

Cheers,

-Grant

Sweet Dolce

This morning we had the pleasure of meeting Dolce. She is an 8 month old, 45 pound, Goldendoodle. Dolce had a great first day here at the Fort, she did an awesome job interacting with the other members of the medium pack. She tried to play with every dog she met, but her favorite was Sammy the Puggle. Dolce is welcome back anytime, and we hope to see her again soon.

In this clip you can see Dolce having a great time playing with Sammy the Puggle. You can also see Lucky and Sierra trying to join in the fun. 

Have a great week,
