Hyunsuk Ku said: ‘In Korea, we have many of these kinds of healthy dessert shop there. So I got the idea from there, but I study the nutrition and get a certification in nutrition. This is my effort to make my dog healthy.’ AFP
‘A lot of dog owners are more interested in pet health because once you have a dog this is not a dog anymore. This is a family member,’ said the owner, who is also a nutritionist. AFP
‘But unfortunately, dogs’ life span is shorter than us. So we are more focused on their welfare and their health so they can live longer as much as possible with us.' AFP
‘Maybe I can make something like a real meal, like a dog pasta or like something very special things I really want to make for them. So this is my next plan to do it for all UAE dog parents.’ AFP
