What is the Most Popular dog breed in the Philippines? Shih-Tzu, Pomeranian and Aspin are some of the most loved dog breeds in the Philippines. They say having a fur baby at home makes us feel happy and less stressed person. In 2021, I bought, Pomeranian, Maltese and Shih-Tzu puppies and they are all adorable although a bit pricey.

Tips before Buying Shih-tzu, Pomeranian Puppies

Are you a dog lover who are planning to buy an imported dog breed soon? Here are some of the tips and considerations before buying one. Rule Number one is that you should have a budget for the fur baby. Buying a "budget meal" puppy more often times leads to trouble since you don't know the history of the puppy.  A quality shih-tzu, pomeranian or maltese puppies should have a Philippine Canine Club Inc Certificate(PCCI). The PCCI is a nonstock, nonprofit, service-oriented corporation established for the primary purpose of handling the registration of the growing number of pure-bred dogs in the country. It is internationally recognized as the only registering body for pedigreed dogs in the country and is an active member of two international canine organizations, the 90 member Federation Cynologique International (FCI) based in Brussels, Belgium.  photo credit: Eillen Greys It is always better if you will re-home a dog when it is already 4 to 5 months old.

Christmas in Philippines/Paskong Pinoy

Paskong Pinoy   is one of the world's longest running Christmas celebrations, usually beginning as early as the arrival of the "-ber" months (September, October, and so on). Filipinos from all over spend this entire season with enormously rich yuletide traditions of merry-making observed up to the present day. History The word  Pasko  is derived from the Spanish " Pascua de Natividad ", which literally means "Easter of the Nativity." However the word " pascua " is associated with "solemnity" or "celebration" for the Spanish, and used for other religious feasts. Historical records show that even before Ferdinand Magellan discovered the Philippines in 1521, an Italian Franciscan friar named Odoric de Perdenon and his colleagues had already landed on the shores of Pangasinan (formerly called “Thalma-sin”). Their arrival marked the country's first Christmas Mass as de Perdenone celebrated a  Natale  Mass with a group of na...
