Our fur friends got dressed in their finest for an afternoon of treats, talks, and puparazzi-ready poses.
We see our guests before they see us: a pair of bichon pomeranians in matching tutus, a golden lab retriever with pink booties, a bandana-clad dachshund, and our favorite Shiba Lco rolling up in a stroller. Joined by their fur parents and families, these canine companions arrive stylishly (and excitedly) to the Uptown Mall atrium for Vogue Philippines’ first-ever DogueDogueVogue Philippines' editorial series celebrating dogs and the people who love them, from rescue stories and family portraits to the history of dogs in Filipino life. Dogue brings the magazine'sGo to Dogue Glossary Party.
Held on October 14, the event was filled with photo ops, friendly interactions, and many, many treats. To cap off the afternoon, actress and fur mom Jasmine Curtis-Smith hosted the inaugural edition of DogueDogueVogue Philippines' editorial series celebrating dogs and the people who love them, from rescue stories and family portraits to the history of dogs in Filipino life. Dogue brings the magazine'sGo to Dogue Glossary Talks, featuring Pfleider School founder Elsie Pfleider and Biyaya Animal Rescue president Rina Ortiz. As the conversation moved from pet training to building an emotional connection, it became clear that our dogs care for us just as we care for them, and that the relationship runs deeper than ownership and obedience, into openness and a shared love for fun instead.
Below, see all the dapper dogs in attendance.
