Hoda

Yesterday morning we assessed a dog named Hoda. Hoda is a 48-pound, 8-month-old, Old English Bulldog & French mix. She came in beaming and ready to explore Fort Fido. She entered into medium roll curiously sniffing about. Hoda began to meet some other pups in medium roll and had a great time socializing with the other dogs. Hoda began to play with Cooper, Maggie, and Petey (Take a peek below!) after learning that The Fort is a safe place to play and have fun. Hoda definitely enjoyed her time here today and we look forward to seeing her return for some more fun.

 

Enjoy the weather,

Comfy Monday

Good afternoon, today is looking like it is going to be a hot day at a high of 86 degrees. While in this hot weather make sure to keep your dogs cool and hydrated. At Fort Fido we keep your dogs cool and hydrated from this hot weather. I enjoy watching the dogs play in pools at times. Don't forget to enjoy the weather while keeping your dog happy and chilled.

Here are some protection tips for your dog in hot weather.

Enjoy the weather and stay happy,

Happy Friday!

Happy Friday! Today was a busy day at the Fort, we had a 3 dog assessment to start the day. We welcomed, Sully, a 9 year old Boxer, Hudson, a 2 year old Schnoodle, and Hazel, a 1 year old Boxer to our pack today. The two Boxers joined our large roll, while Hudson went into our small roll. All three of them did well and explored their surroundings meeting many new dogs. Sully was eager to lead the pack in the large roll, she showed her leadership skills while Hazel mingled within the pack, making herself comfortable amongst them. Hudson showed interest in the ball and was mingling upstairs with the little dogs. Stay cool this weekend and make sure you and your dog drink plenty of water.
Have a great weekend!

Hardy

This morning we Assessed Hardy. He is a one year old, eighty-three pound, Mastiff Mix, that is chock full of life! The Happy-Hardy, burst into our Big Roll, ready to get his game on. We first introduced him to Nevada, and the two got along very well together. As the morning progressed, Hardy met several other pack members, communicating with them properly and coaxing many of them into play. Hardy really took a liking to, Harley, among several others... Harley and Hardy tore it up, playing fast and furiously about the play area. We are happy that Hardy enjoyed his time here at The Fort, he's one that can get a lot out of Dog Daycare here, and we're stoked that it's a fit. Good on ya Hardy boy!

Checkout these clips of Hardy having a grand time.

Watch as Miss Nevada monitors Hardy and Harley's play. Very cool. She doesn't want them getting too rowdy lol. At times, it is amazing how much the pack can take care of it's self and make our jobs easier. We don't do all the work! ;)

Cheers,

Izzy

This morning we welcomed Izzy into Fort Fido. Izzy is a 2-year-old 8-pound Jack Russell mix. Izzy came in cool-headed and ready to figure out what The Fort was. She went on up into small roll and  determined that The Fort was a place to have fun at. She warmed up and socialized with the pack in small roll, meeting a lot of new friends here. Izzy had a wondrous day and we look forward to seeing her return for more fun.

Enjoy the weather while it lasts ad stay cool,

Cano & Charlie

Yesterday we Assessed the kindly Cano here at The Fort. He is a one year old, thirty-five pound, cream colored, Labradoodle. Cano came in Chipper and happy to be here. We escorted him to the Medium Roll, where he entered without a care. After sniffing around a bit, we had him begin to meet the pack. Cano first met up with Jupiter, and within seconds, the two dogs became playmates! It is quite clear that Cano is no stranger to canine communication and socialization. He is already a Dog Daycare Veteran, as he attended another Daycare in the past as a pup. Cano was an absolute pleasure to have in here, we hope he becomes one of our regulars!

Checkout Cano in action with Jupiter.

This morning the Fort Fido Team had, Charlie, in for his Assessment Day. Charlie is a three year old, thirteen pound, Miniature Poodle Mix. This cute little fella jaunted with us upstairs to the Little Roll. Inside, he explored his new found surroundings with his nose to the ground. Once he got settled, it was time for Charlie to meet the other canines... Which he did pleasantly. Charlie had no problems fitting in with the play group and having a good time. When "Ball Time" started, Charlie loved it. He chased after the thrown toys, and really enjoyed pursuing the pack as they chased after toys. We are pleased that Charlie had a nice time here today. He is most welcome anytime.

First-rate jobs Cano and Charlie, way to be!

Enjoy your weekend, and have fun at The Open if you attend.

McGinnis & Bella

Welcome McGinnis and Bella to Fort Fido. McGinnis is a 10-year-old Austrilian Sheppard and Bella is a 1 1/2 year-old Shih Tzu Mix. McGinnis strolled right on into medium roll while Bella confidently entered into small roll. They both found out right away that The Fort is all about having fun and that they can relax here. McGinnis may not have played a lot today but he enjoyed mingling and meeting the pack. Bella really enjoyed her time here and with some more time would surely play about with the others. We look forward to seeing both McGinnis and Bella return to Fort Fido for some more fun.

Stay cool and enjoy the weather,
