For Filipino pet owners, caring for a dog means providing complete wellness, alongside giving them a home. It also means making sure pets receive the care they need to stay healthy and happy. Yet access to essential wellness services can be challenging.
This is where the community can make a difference.
TopBreed and the UP Men’s Basketball Team (UPMBT) are coming together for Paws & Purpose Pet Wellness Day, a community-centered initiative that brings sports, pet care, and service together. This year, the collaboration begins by doing something more special, giving back to the pet community.
A Partnership with a Purpose
Taking place on August 29, 2026, at Kamia Hall, UP Diliman, the event will bring together TopBreed, UPMBT, and the UP Friends of Campus Animals (UP FOCA) for a day focused on pet health and responsible pet ownership.
Around 100 pet owners from the UP community are expected to benefit from essential services, including vaccinations, microchipping, spay-and-neuter procedures, and basic veterinary consultations.
The event will also feature pet games, grooming services, product sampling, loot bags, a photo booth, raffle activities, and exclusive merchandise—creating a fun experience for both pets and their owners.

Bringing “Top Love & Care” to Life
At the heart of Paws & Purpose is TopBreed’s Top Love & Care, reflecting the idea that responsible pet ownership includes daily nutrition and overall wellness.
The initiative also allows UPMBT to extend its impact beyond the basketball court, bringing athletes and the community together around a shared appreciation for pets and their well-being.
Ultimately, Paws & Purpose shows how partnerships can be about more than bringing two organizations together. By starting with an initiative that supports pet wellness, TopBreed and UPMBT are creating a partnership rooted in community, compassion, and care—one pet at a time.
