Dogs, cats, love birds, and even exotic animals such as turtle and bearded dragon accompanied their pet parents to work at Bayer Animal Health in Canlubang, Laguna.
The company opened the doors to its office to pets in line with its global advocacy to promote animal well-being. Now in its third year, Bayer’s recent Bring Your Pets to Work Day coincided with the World Animal Day in 2019.
A pet blessing was conducted in celebration of the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi—patron saint of animals—which was attended by over 20 employees and pet parents.
In the afternoon, a pet wellness talk on pet nutrition and parasite protection was conducted.
Dr. Marco Philip Ripoll, a pet nutrition consultant explained to the attendees the importance of proper diet and nutrition for pets. Meanwhile, Bayer resident veterinarians Dr. Felina Mata and Dr. Mark Kevin Badiola explained effective and efficient parasite protection through Bayer’s Advantix Spot-on.
Pets also indulged in an ultimate pampering during the day at the free dog grooming station where Bayopet Herbal Shampoos were used for a lasting soft, smooth, and healthy fur. Free onsite Advantix Spot-On was also given to ensure month-long parasite protection for dogs.
