Gourmet Flavor Dog Biscuits

I found this HUGE bag of dog biscuits in the supermarket a few days ago. The bag was huge and screaming purple so it was really hard to miss. I looked closer. 8 pounds of imported dog biscuits for only Php 462.50! Of course, I had to get one.

The biscuits come in 5 gourmet flavors- chicken, bacon, peanut butter, vegetable, and beef. They smell so good that I am tempted to try one. But I have a feeling that our dogs won't agree if I took one. They get very excited when they see me approaching their kennel with handfuls of these biscuits. Needless to say, these dog biscuits are a hit.

The Buff -Dog

Buffy is a little Jack Russel Terrier (US Standard). More importantly she is my dog. She is a little fireball, the girl loves to run and chase anything about her size or smaller. She can be annoying at times, but I love the little spitfire.

When not walking, Buffy maintains this stance as she is ready to bolt

When walking or loitering around she keeps her nose to the ground a lot,
displaying her hunting dog heritage

And she is always alert, reacting to anything that goes on around her... well unless she is single-mindedly chasing a chicken or something.

Oxyfresh: Found!

Last Friday, June 8, 2007, Robin and I went on a little trip to Tagaytay. We had lunch at Breakfast at Antonio's and on our way home, we noticed some signs of dog supplies manufacturers outside Tagaytay Vista Hotel. Curious, we stopped by to have a look-see. As it turns out, the Veterinary Practitioners Association of the Philippines (VPAP) is holding its 35th Annual Scientific Conference. Outside the venue, there were a lot of stalls showcasing veterinary products.

We spied on an Oxyfresh banner outside so we were quite hopeful to find them in one of the stalls. We have been looking for Oxyfresh for over a year now after their office in Mandaluyong closed down. That is why I was very happy when I found out that they did have a stall there. I was able to talk to Liza, Oxyfresh's Direct Marketing Coordinator and I told her how glad we were to find them. Their pet deodorizer worked really well on our Pekingese dogs which are quite infamous for bad breath (tee hee..).

We got two 16 oz bottles of the pet deodorizer when they didn't have a 1 gal. bottle. Afterall, we had many dogs. At least now though, we know where to find them when we run out again:
MAKATI OFFICE
Suite 910 Medical Plaza, Amorsolo cor. Dela Rosa, Legazpi Village, Makati City
QUEZON CITY OFFICE
Suite 811 Future Point Plaza, 112 Panay Avenue, Quezon City
