Dogs at Algon

My passion for dogs started when I was 2nd year college I brought a dog with my Australian cousins at Cartimar, Pasay. It was December 0f '99. So I decided to call my first dog "milenyo" That dog which I purchased was a dachshund, a small but long toydog with a sharp snout and waggly little tail. This was the first of my dogs to come. But from that time, I really didn't pay attention to that dog since i got married and settled here at Cabuyao, Laguna.

Since I moved here at Laguna, I was driving along the highway going to Cavinti, Laguna. As I passed by the a big kennel, I saw so many dogs that made think I can also do what they are doing. So I brought 2 dogs from them, a yellow labrador and a red rust doberman both of them females. I have a cousin who from that time was getting ready to migrate to Canada, he asked me if I can take care of his wonderful dogs. I didn't hesitate to answer yes, because I knew this was my chance to have my dreams dogs: Golden Retriever, Rotweilers, English Bulldog, etc.....

Currently, I have the following dogs here in my kennel:
- Pugs
I have a male and a female ready to breed.

- English Bulldog
I have a female but with some skin problems. But for me she's still cute and macho at the same time. This is my favorite breed.

- Golden Retriever
I have a male ready for stud service. Very proven.

- American Staffordshire Terrier (Pitbull)
I have a female ready to breed. A very powerful dog.

- American Bulldog


- Doberman
I have a very handsome doberman for stud service, also very proven.

Although I can say that this is not a very profitable way to make money. Why? Because i do not want to compromise the health and quality of the dogs that I produce here at Algon. For the past few months, rising costs of dog foods, dog shampoos, medicines, etc...made me feel the pain in my pockets. So I decided to divert my attention to Toy Dogs, which are more expensive but easier to maintain. Maintaining these kind of dogs are hard for me, financially and physically. But the rewards of owning them are a gem. It also gives me the satisfaction to see them grow old with me...... I treat them also as a part of my family. If you know anyone who would like to enter this kind of hobby it will be best if he/she research a lot about a breed before buying or getting one. There are many books about these breeds which can be bought at bookstores or you can also search the net.... By the way, their are different dog breeds that would suit the lifestyle of different dog owners. For example, apartment dwellers should have a toydog instead of a large dog because of the living space. A large dog would suit in well in large places such as compounds and plants / factories...

To end this, I would gladly help out people who would like to have dogs as their pets.... I'm willing to give advice on proper dog health care. As this will also help others in understanding that dogs really are a man's best friend.
