Gensan Dog Show 2016
It's that time of the year when Gensan or General Santos City celebrates Kalilangan Festival. Kalilangan means festivity or jubilee. This is in commemoration of the Maguindanaon dialect in Mindanao. (Mindanao is one of the 3 large islands in the Philippines located at the South).
This is one of those lovely huskies there.
This husky is medium sized. There were two bigger than him. And some smaller than him.
Husky pups! I love the color of their eyes.
German Shepherd.
But my husband's German Shepherd, 7 - year old Boggart is bigger than this.
Most of the time, the Kalilangan celebration has parade of floats, dance contests, painting exhibits and some local actors / actresses visits the city for the festival. But this time, they have the DOG SHOW. This is quite wonderful! I think they have this last year as well but I was not able to see the show. This year, I really experienced watching a live DOG show in the city.
The owner of these pups are old couple who enjoys dogs very much.
There were 4 of them in one cage!
I do not know though if they are Maltese or Shihtzu. Forgive me.
This terrier / Scottish Terrier is one the contestants of the Agility Contest.
He did pretty great out there! I saw him.
Plus I remember JOCK of Lady and the Tramp movie; film originally released in 1955.
This year's dog show was held at Veranza Mall. There were literally a big number of dogs in different breeds with all the sizes from small to medium to large dogs. There were furry ones and non- flocculent ones. There was an Animal Control Unit provided by the government in case an accident would happen. They are prepared!
The huge pitbull. So massive!
This is the little Pitbull pup.
I was really amazed to see the people of different races and of different ages. They are more aware on how to take care of dogs upon my interview of probably one of the youngest dog owner there. It is a good sign that even children could take care of pets / dogs. At least some of them are not too busy with gadgets.
This little girl already knows how to take care of this little Pomeranian called "Gloc".
This little creature is so nice and she doesn't bark a lot like most of the little breeds.
There were little dogs like Pug, Pomeranian, Maltese, Chihuahua, Terrier (of different sorts and mixes) and Shihtzu. There were huge dogs like German shepherd, Belgian Malinois, St. Bernard, Golden Retriever, Labrador, Husky and Pitbull. There were fluffy ones too like Chowchow.
Hello Asland! ooppsss. Sorry, chowchow!
Oh hello there little lion cub! Hahaha
Sorry, lovely Chowchow pup!
The dog candidates were provided with obstacle course for them to finish within a specific time frame. This was during the AGILITY contest. There was also a contest of the biggest dog. I feel too bad that I was not able to finish the whole show and didn't know who won the contests. Nevertheless, I enjoyed.
And who would forget this humongous St. Bernard.
This is the first time I saw one in my life.
It is something new in Gensan. It is something we can look forward to every year.
