PRESS RELEASE: UNAHCO INTRODUCES NEW LINE OF PET PRODUCTS, DOGGIESSENTIALS

Univet Nutrition and Animal Healthcare Company (UNAHCO), the agribusiness unit of pharmaceutical leader Unilab introduces its newest products under the Doggiessentials line.

Doggiessentials is not just another dog or pet care product but they aim to look after the total well being of our furbabies. The newest line includes dog food under the Yum Yum brand, dog shampoo under the Bubble Bath brand, and Dextrolyte Powder, a ready-to-mix dextrose powder with electrolytes to help animals fight stress and dehydration. 

Doggiessentials Brand Manager Chester Subagan said UNAHCO recognizes the huge potentials of pet products due to the growing number of people who consider pets as perfect companions whether at home or outdoors. 

Being a pet parent to my furbabies, Crumpy and Cheesecake, I am excited to hear about affordable and quality products that ensures not only good looks but for the overall health and well being of our beloved pets. With a company that share my same vision about genuine pet care, I am looking forward in trying their products. 

Their dog food brand, Yum Yum, comes in two variants: Hi-Protein for puppies and the Adult variety which is fortified with Omega 3 & 6. Both variants have flavor peptides and Vitamin B Complex to enhance appetite and promote strong growth.


YUM YUM! Adult (20kg) - Php 1,333.52

Bubble Bath Grooming - Nourish & Protect (500ml) - Php 278.88

Dextrolyte (5g 48 x 1) - Php 162.40


YUM YUM! Hi Protein (20kg) - ₱1,539.51



Bubble Bath, on the other hand, is a pH-balanced dog shampoo that eliminates odor because it is formulated with the right acid-to-base ratio to keep dogs’ skin and coat healthy.

“An unbalanced pH level can harm the dog’s skin and coat, making them uncomfortable and prone to skin irritations,” Subagan explained. “The perfect pH level for dogs is 7, the pH level of pure water, and this is what we offer with Bubble Bath.”

“A pH level that is too acidic can strip your dog’s acid mantle, causing the skin to become dry, flaky and stinky,” he said. “A pH level that is too basic, on the other hand, can cause unhealthy skin which becomes conducive to fungi, bacteria, parasites and other viruses.”

Dextrolyte, for its part, serves like a sports drink for dogs. I have always believed that we should ensure that electrolytes are replenished or adequate, when they are not feeling very well and after we travel.

P.S. We haven't tried these products yet but will try to see if they're already available here in Bacolod and make a review about it. If you have tried them, share your thoughts about UNAHCO's latest products in the comments section below.
