It doesn’t matter how old my dog is I still call him my puppy. I can still see him as a little fat ball of hair and that’s probably the way I’ll always see him.
Today is National Dog Day! Eaton Square at Arlington Ridge is a pet-friendly community and we want to help you celebrate your furry friend! We found some great ways to celebrate this special day for your dog!
- Take your dog out to the park! Let him/her get the exercise they’ll love.
- Buy your dog a special treat. Either a new toy or a yummy snack!
- Pamper your puppy with a bath or take him/her to the pet salon!
- Post pics of your pup on our Facebook page! Let’s see how cute he is!
- Don’t have a dog? Want one? Adopt! or Rescue one!

When you have Eaton Square at Arlington Ridge’s brand new fitness center featuring state-of-the-art cardio and weight equipment! Seriously I’m not paying for a gym membership as long as I’m living at Eaton Square.
The fitness center has to be my favorite amenity at the community. After work everyday I’ll change into my exercise outfit (yes I have an exercise outfit) and I’ll head over to the gym. No need to get into the car, no need for a monthly membership. I can get into shape at home.
What’s your favorite amenity at Eaton Square at Arlington Ridge?

Summer blockbusters come plenty and each is proceeding each. Over the summer I watch more movies and I’m ready for the movie Salt.
Angelina Jolie portrays a government agent who supposedly is framed in an act against her country. There are certain parts of the movie that definitely make you wonder who the bad guy is or who the good guy us.
