Info Manila: A New Kind of Dog Event for the Benefit of the IRO (Island Resccue Organization)

Taguig, Philippines – Last November 16, I was invited for the press launch of “2^nd team KOVU Dog Sport Cup” that will happen at Greenfield City Sports Field, Paseo Center Sta. Rosa Laguna this November 28, 2015. I personally love dogs and cats as they provide unexplainable joy to anyone around them but it was long time ago since I have my last dog. Sir Carl Michael de Leon started the program Team Kovu last 2013 and he decided to launch the program again this year.

Team Kovu Enterprise was legally established in March 8, 2012. However, the concept before its legal formation started a year earlier in February, 2011 when Carl de Leon and his personally trained American Bulldog named Kovu passed the qualifying trial to compete in the official Philippine Mondioring trials. The “Carl & Kovu” tandem was already a known duo to the local dog community since 2007 as they usually participate in key dog events happening in and around the metro. Team Kovu’s reputation was built not only to be known as competitors in the different dog sport events in the country, but also by doing adventure activities like climbing, mountains together, river trekking, and exploring different beach getaways that are dog friendly. Backed by nine years of professional dog training experience, media attention such as TV guesting and magazine features came along the team’s way. Also, aside from holding dog training classes, the team also gets invited often to do seminars on how to properly communicate with dogs. The Team Kovu brand aims and continuously promotes an active human and dog lifestyle by providing new and exciting avenues on which they can spend quality time together and further bring their relationship to new heights.

Team Kovu would like to invite the local dog community to come and join the first ever human and dog outdoor adventure challenge happening on the “2^nd Team Kovu Dog Sport Cup” event for the benefit of the Island Rescue Organization (IRO) this is set to happen on November 28, 2015 (Saturday) at the Greenfield City Sports Field, Paseo Center Sta. Rosa Laguna from 8am to 7pm. Also Ms. Nena Hernandez, Executive Director of IRO, will also be coming in that event to share awareness and their advocacy and the assistance of the local dog community in Metro Manila to extend in the south area side of our country.

There are a lot of exciting things that will happen on that event such as follows:
