15 Pawsome Treats And Gifts For The Good Dog
On International Dog Day, Metro.Style gives you its black book for every kind of present your doggo will love
On August 26, 2004, animal welfare advocate, Colleen Paige declared International Dog Day to celebrate dogs of all breeds and backgrounds. This special day is set on August 26 to commemorate the day Paige adopted her first shelter dog, “Sheltie.”
As the day dictates, celebrate your dog companions, no matter their breed or history. After all, not only do they give you lots of loving looks, snuggles and unconditional love, they are important members of the family.
In honor of International Dog Day, Metro.Style shares its black book of resources for your pooch:

Grooming
The menu of grooming services includes Full Grooming for dogs and cats of all sizes, Bath & Dry for dogs of all sizes, as well as an extensive list of a la carte services that make for quick in and out trips when you need help giving your fur babies a little extra TLC that you can’t do at home. The products carried are vetted by the founders and partners of Collar & Comb, testing everything personally on their own fur babies to see if it’s worth selling. I personally recommend picking up a bottle of their home brand shampoo (for in between visits refreshing) and dehydrated beef tendons from Pawfect Plate, the latter of which my bullies especially loved. -Justin Convento

Life by Petto aims to provide preventive and quality care for your pets, especially since there is a gap in the local market for pet health and wellness services—despite the massive increase in pet owners in recent years. For only P1,200 a month, you can get Life by Petto’s basic health plan that covers your pet’s primary health and wellness needs including diagnostics, vaccines, common illnesses, and accidents—services that most pets and their owners would greatly benefit from.

Party Packs And Treats
Pawty Pack Pawty Pack (@pawtypack_ph) is the brainchild of "doggo pawrents," Bam and Ken Litonjua. With the expertise of their Pomeranian quality control tasters, Dimsum and Winter (the company’s “Chief Executive Doggycers,” as their "hoomans" call them), they created Pawty Pack with the health of every dog in mind.
