PET DOG SOIREE AT SM CITY CLARK – a successful event!

 PUNTO! Central Luzon  April 26, 2009  Monday page 9

This is the first time that a Pet Dog Soiree was held at the Event Center of SM City Clark.  The city-wide power interruption last April 18, 2009 paved the way for a lot of our “cabalens” to go to SM City Clark to escape the summer heat. Dog owners found out that there was an event going on for their dogs so some went back home to fetch their “babies” and bring them to the mall.  Despite the lack of advertisement and promotion, Events and Concepts was able to gather 42 cute dogs, mostly lap and toy breeds.

The registration started as early as 11:00 am. The event featured free nail buffing and trimming, courtesy of PETBERO, the first Professional Pet Groomer in Pampanga. There was also a dog food buffet provided by PROPLAN super premium dog food.  A veterinarian was also present to provide free check-up. Dr. Amiel Angeles from the Angeles Pet Care Clinic (located along Mc. Arthur Highway, Dau, Mbalacat, Pampanga) was there to entertain all questions about proper pet care.

The whole afternoon was filled with fun games for both dogs and their owners. Games like “doggie dash” and dog food eating contest were enjoyed by the crowd. Raffle prizes were also given away to lucky winners.  The highlight of the event was the “Dog Fashion Show wherein 21 dogs participated in fabulous costumes and the winners were judged by Dr. Amiel Angeles, Dr. Alwin Anicete—a Veterinarian and a photographer, and costume accessory designer Cholo Ayuyao.

Because of the success of this pilot activity, Maricel Asif, the very brilliant Marketing Officer of SM City Clark plans to hold this activity every three months. 

So to all dog owners and dog lovers, watch out for more fun activities for us and our “babies” happening at the Event Center of SM City Clark.
