“I’m always all for dogs naman ever since nagkaisip ako and right now it’s my own way of also giving back to my dog especially kay Chichi who has been taking care of me unconsciously kahit hindi niya alam, as much as I am also taking care of her. And also for all the dogs out there that need love.

“The campaign that we have now for the aspins is nung sinabi sa akin ito, I really said yes immediately kasi parang tama nga naman na we should love our own dogs. Frankly speaking, yung mga may breeds, dapat same treatment yung binibigay natin sa mga aspins natin kasi they are local dogs and sila talaga yung matatawag natin na sariling atin,” he said.

Through his newest advocacy, Alden explained why he wanted to change the discrimination and outdated perception that Pinoys have regarding aspins versus pedigreed dogs.

“We should be proud of our own breeds like dogs. Yung goal ng campaign na ito ay para sabihin sa mga kababayan natin na we should love our own. Kasi ganun naman di ba? Love your own brand para at least na-po-promote natin sila sa magandang aspeto.

“Sadly kasi parang merong unfair treatment when it comes to dogs na may breeds and dun sa mga aspin natin. Na kapag may breed yung aso at galing sa ganitong bansa, kailangan yung pagkain niyan iba, kailangan dinadala sa vet, etc. Bakit hindi rin puwede sa aspin? Bakit pag aspin laging ang ipapakain natin leftover food, yung tira? Yung puwede na lang tapos itatali natin, ikukulong natin. Kumbaga ginagawa nating guard dogs. Meron naman talagang guard dogs pero what I’m really trying to say is for us to give fair treatment to these dogs.

“Kasi at the end of the day lahat naman sila aso eh and us being Filipinos, we should love our own aspin. That’s why this campaign is to promote that and excited akong gawin ito kasi at least kahit papaano it’s my way of giving back to my aspin na si Chichi.”
