Stella

This morning we welcomed Stella. She is a 45 pound, 5 month-old, Catahoula pup. We started Stella out this morning in the medium roll. As soon as the dogs started to arrive she was able to relax and play. Stella spoke great dog, made friends, and had a fantastic time here at  The Fort. Check out the clip captured below of Stella playing with Abby (among others). Hope that she will return soon to make even more friends.

Stay happy,

Sam & Nessa

Yesterday we met Sam. Sam is a 50-pound, 9 year old, black lab/beagle/bassett mix. He entered Fort Fido as if he had a thousand times before. As he was taken into the medium roll, I saw that his tail was up and his nose on investigate mode sniffing around. I noticed that he did a lot of mingling as well as resting in the medium roll. I am sure that Sam made a few friends thought the day.

Today we met Nessa. Nessa is a 80-pound, 5 year old, yellow lab. I watched her stroll into The Fort this morning and she knew this was a place to let loose and have fun. I saw her all over the large roll with the other pups and she was having a fabulous time with them. Luckily I caught a clip of her playing with Bob Marley. Take a peek below =)

I hope that we see both Sam and Nessie return for more fun soon!
