Keeping pets healthy requires teamwork. As a pet owner, you’re an important part of that team. When you know something is wrong with your pet, you rely on your veterinarian to help. Over the past year, more Filipinos are turning to pets as their trusted quarantine companions. However, a recent survey shows that 93% of cat- and 50% of dog owners do not get their pets checked regularly. The survey also highlights that most owners only bring their pets to the vet for vaccinations and medical procedures, reflecting how wellness checkups are not common in the Philippines.
Being a well-informed participant in your pet’s healthcare means educating yourself, understanding the importance of preventive care, and knowing when to consult your veterinarian and bring your furry babies for check-ups. You and your veterinarian make up the all-star team when it comes to keeping your pet healthy. This is why global leading pet nutrition manufacturer and provider Royal Canin recently launched its Bring My Pet to the Vet (BMPV) campaign as part of its commitment to champion responsible pet ownership among Filipino pet parents. The campaign encourages both new and old pet owners to bring their pets to the vet as early and as regularly as they can, and understand the importance of pet preventive healthcare and medicalization. It also underlines the role that veterinarians play in our pets’ lives, as it provides a platform for pet owners to connect with their trusted vets and clinics, ultimately building a more connected and engaged pet community in the Philippines.
From Royal Canin’s Bring My Dog to the Vet in 2019, the company boosts its Royal Canin Club app by making the BMPV campaign accessible and available via its mobile platform. Pet owners across the Philippines can now access over 20,000 free pet checkups and 4,000 BMPV care kits. To claim the free checkup, pet owners should claim the free consultation voucher under the mobile app’s rewards, find the nearest clinic in the store locator by selecting the Vet feature, and reach out to the clinics directly to book their appointments. Pet owners need to present their generated checkup QR code on their Royal Canin Club app to avail of the free consultation on the day of the appointment. Royal Canin Club app users are encouraged to complete their post-checkup survey for more amazing perks and rewards in the application.
Educate yourself today on proper pet care and pet health problems by asking questions and finding answers from reliable, trusted sources of information—such as your veterinarian.
