ON our “Matanglawin” TV show recently, we met Milo, doggie-bibo of Antipolo. Owned by Tristan Huertas, a dog trainer, is an almost 2-year old Jack Russell Terrier.
Tristan says all dogs can learn tricks depending on its trainer’s patience and hard work to teach their dogs.
Commands, he says, have to be repeated between 80 to 100 times in order for the dog to remember an order.

What’s a Dolldalita Doll?
The Waldorf Doll served as an inspiration for the Dolldalita Dolls, as created by Jacklyn Zapatos, inventor of Dolldalita Dolls.
They are made of cloth, taking between 4-6 hours to make. You don’t mistake them for basahan as they are cute and cuddly.
“Matanglawin” airs every Sunday morning at 10 on ABS-CBN.
