Ever since I got my mini dachshund, The Purple Groom in Xavierville Ave has been my go-to place for…read moremy pet's grooming services. While the place can get really full on weekends, I prefer going during weekdays as there are not too many dogs lined up for grooming, and the groomers can really spend time on my dog (and the freshly groomed scent lasts all week too!) The price depends on the grooming, but since I have a short-haired mini dachs, the price is slightly affordable at 400. The service starts with the groomer gently cutting the dog's nails, followed by cleaning the ears with baby oil (if your dog has special ear medicine, you can bring that too), then followed by a bath. The Purple Groom uses a tub and a handheld shower to really clean the dog. This is then followed by drying the dog with a blower, and once your furry friend is all dried up, powder and cologne are applied. In addition to dog grooming, The Purple Groom also retails Royal Canin dog food, as well as some accessories and medicines such as tick removers, pet cologne and pet carriers, beds, and dog nappies. What I really like though about The Purple Groom is how they handle the dogs. Personally, I've been requesting Christian to groom my dog as he's very gentle with dogs and you can really see that he's just really into pets and is very professional and knows what he's doing. Also, if you are busy, you can also leave your pets safely at The Purple Groom as they have ample dog cages while their owners are still out doing errands.

I have brought my furbabies to different dog groomers and most of them did not treat them well…read more There was one time where my dog came home with a bleeding ear. Another time, my other dog came home with ticks and got sick. :( Since then, I made a point to find a groomer that not only made my furbabies pretty, they also had to be people who were very caring in the way they handled them. The reason why I like The Purple Groom is because, when I ask them to give my furbabies a specific cut, they don't ask questions and just do it. For example, I always ask that my Toy Poodle has to have a Bichon cut (I like her to look poofy all the time). Also, for my Yorkie, he is a boy but I ask that they give him a "girl cut" and they would know what I mean. Their regular full grooming package includes shampoo, hair cut, nail trim, ear cleaning, and teeth cleaning. The grooming prices range from Php450 for a small breeds and Php500 for medium breeds. I usually have to pay a bit more for my poodle because her fur is always in knots. Also, I like that they will text me a message when they are almost finished grooming. :)

Today we visited that clinic for the scheduled vaccine and deworming of our dog, at 10am according to the staff, the vet took their early lunch. So we waited until 1:30pm and ask again the staff. They said that the vet is resting and still not calling any pet patients. We have waited for more than 3hrs to be called by the vet, but still to not avail. That vet clinic did not matter the importance of time of the pet owners. The power tripping attitude of those vets in that clinic reflects their unprofessional attitudes.

Aside from witty repartee, they offer pet grooming services at your very doorstep. They have a van that's outfitted to become a mobile pet salon so that you can just call them up and they'll go to your house. The convenience they give you doesn't mean they hold back on the quality of service. You can still expect the same amount of care that you've grown accustomed to with your favorite pet salon.

Calling out to dog lovers out there! Whether you're a new…read moredog owner or if you already have a staple dog shop somewhere else, I recommend trying out Dogs and the City. Here's why: Apart from other dog spas, Dogs and the City have very reasonable prices for grooming and other dog services. They also have check ups with their resident veterinarian, great collection of dog accessories, cages, shampoos, conditioners, toys, and whatnot! The staff there, especially the ones who bathe the cute little and big dogs, are very kind. They are patient and really do a great job in trimming dogs' hair and nails. They also inform you via text message once your dog has already been groomed, so that you won't have to stay for too long in the shop or come back every now and then to check. When you claim your dog back and you don't like something, just tell the groomers and they'll patiently address your needs!

It's in our genes - a remnant of the trust and love and sense of security that was cultivated over hundreds and thousands of years of hunting and surviving together since the dawn of humanity. And I know this paragraph started well but I have no idea how to eloquently say that my dog started bleeding from her hooha because she got a venereal disease so I'm just gonna put that out there. Now, when your best friend's hooha gets inflamed and starts spitting out pus, your worry levels skyrocket. Thank the gods there was a quaint little veterinary office near our place with the nicest doctor who genuinely cared about her patients. Aside from making sure my dog got the treatment she needs, she also gave her a full grooming rundown.

He may be in doggy heaven now, but he will always be in my heart. Months after I lost him, I was given the opportunity to adopt another canine, this time, a Shih Tzu puppy. After my landlady agreed that I could keep him in tmy apartment here in Manila (Julio lived in our family home in Cavite), I agreed. Now I'm mommy to Yuan, who has his own hashtag on Facebook and Instagram: #YuanTamad. The search for a veterinary clinic that was easily accessible from our place soon followed. Thankfully, my friend who owns a Dachshund discovered Bloomers Petshop and Clinic at Harrison Plaza. Since then, we have brought Yuan there for his complete vaccinations and deworming. He also gets groomed there. Should you intend to go to the clinic, ask to be dropped off near the Bingo Place at Harrison Plaza as pets are not allowed inside the mall. Look for Doc Lubreen Bueno who is very sweet with our dogs and who patiently explains each procedure and answers questions. You only need to pay a Php 200 one-time consultation fee on your first visit. Succeeding check-ups are already covered. Grooming for our one-year-old Shih Tzu is at Php 450.

And where better to see puppies than the famed Cartimar Pet Center, the Divisoria of the animal kingdom where you can get yourself a furry life partner for less than the price of your average microwave. Even Tinder won't get you that. Even if you're not currently looking for the one, or if you've already found your furry pal, Cartimar Pet Center is still a must-visit for any animal lover. Aside from the obvious pros of seeing cute puppies frolicking around in their cages, waiting for someone to sing "How much is that doggy in the window?", you can also get amazing deals on pet food, accessories, and anything else you need for little Fido. They don't have lasagna though. Garfield will be disappointed. I know I was.

She bribes me with food to get me out of the house, and then takes me to Cartimar Pet Center so we can watch puppies with their chubby, furry butts playing with other puppies or just staring back at us, too lazy to move. This furry therapy always works, but almost always ends up with me begging her to get me a chow chow, or that adorably labrador puppy. This is also where we buy accessories and pet food for our little Stormy. We don't tell her we come here to look at other dogs though - she's a very jealous little lady, and it wouldn't do to upset her. Tip for dog-owners: get your doggy a superhero outfit. It's awesome, I promise.
