There are people who still think that dogs with breeding are better than aspins (asong Pinoy). Heart Evangelista is aiming to change the way we view aspins by how she raises one.
The actress told Dingdong Dantes on an episode of Amazing Earth, “Pag napaliguan ‘yan at naalagaan, gaganda rin sila like any other dog.” [“Like any other dog, aspins become beautiful when they are taken care of.”]
She added, “By giving her a good life and showing people na she deserves a really nice collar too, or she deserves a nice blanket, then it changes the way people think. And then pag nakita nila yung aso, ‘ang ganda ng aso, parang ‘di askal.” [“And when they see the dog and he looks nice, he doesn’t like a stray dog.”]
The actress is the furmom to Panda, an aspin who has an even more luxurious life than us. She wears Hermes scarves, has tasteful clothes, and sleeps on a beautiful bed. Evangelista is walking the talk by how she treats her dog.
