Pet Express holds Dog and Cat Expo 2015
MANILA, Philippines - Dog and cat lovers of all ages recently enjoyed shopping with their furry and feline friends at the “Pet Express Dog and Cat Expo 2015” at the SMX Convention Center, in partnership with Compassion And Responsiblity towards Animals (CARA) and the Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS).
The expo featured booths of top brands of food to feed their pets like Alpo, Pedigree, Fancy Feast, Friskies, Acana, Good Boy, Royal Canin, as well as those to keep them healthy like Science Diet, Vitality and Vitakraft. Pawsh Couture featured a lot of pet fashion fun, while Ezydog, Wahl and Acuaverde drew a lot of interest among pet parents.
There were lots of fun and games like the Doggie Bowling and Treasure Hunt sponsored by Vitakraft and Sosro and Creso.
Health and nutrition seminars from Pedigree and Good Boy led by Dr. Leilani Acero and Dr. Rabara, who talked about dog and cat nutrition myths. Jojo Isorena from BetterDog Philippines, gave a Focus Training session giving pet owners tips on how they can teach their dogs to focus on certain tasks.
This year, Pet Express introduced Doggie Yoga by Brad Feliciano, who studied dog training in the Karen Pryor Academy, teaching parents to bond with their dogs as they relax by doing yoga. Dog enthusiasts were delighted to see K9 dogs in action in an Explosive Detection Canine Capability demonstration by K9 Training Center. They demonstrated how these dogs are trained and capable of detecting explosives and drugs.
The Expo was also an event for a cause with a CARA Welfare Charity Raffle; with a free overnight vacation at a Pet-friendly and luxe resort Acuaverde.
Pet Express Petrifying Trail Year 6 will be held on Oct. 25.
