Mission Hills Sports & Eco Park is going pet crazy Saturday as some special furry friends arrive to celebrate World Animal Day with Animals Asia Foundation.

    All animal lovers are welcome to join! There’s lots animal fun too, like face painting, game booths, interactions with Professor Paws and competitions to win prizes like international brand pet products, beauty vouchers provided by Gogo Park and even a stay at Mission Hills Resort worth 2,300 yuan!

    This is an opportunity for you to come and discover the special relationship that can exist between people and dogs. Nine professionally trained and certified dogs will be there on the day, and children can play games and learn safe and positive ways to interact with animals. The pets are from Animals Asia Foundation’s Professor Paws and Doctor Dog programs, which are special therapy dogs that provide loving companionship to people in hospitals and disabled centers, care homes for the young and elderly, and much more.
