These days, a dog’s life is pretty sweet. Manila has become a pet-centric playground for dog owners and their four-legged buddies to hangout at canine-friendly spots, and the day’s activities go way beyond playing catch. A booming pet industry now allows dogs to have their monthly check-ups at swanky animal hospitals. They can even shop in style at specialty pet stores and spend the day chilling out at doggie day spas. SPOT.ph rounded up the top 10 places for premium pet services for your next pampering spree.
