"Askal" and "Aspin" are terms used to describe native dogs in the Philippines. They stand for "Asong Kalye" and "Asong Pinoy," respectively, which translate to "street dog" and "native dog" in English.
Using the right term to describe our duly recognized pinoy breed can help promote a more inclusive and positive image for these amazing pets.
❌ASKAL (Asong Kalye)
✅ASPIN (Asong Pinoy)
While we're making the right switch in the way we refer our furry companions it's equally important to get reminded that both Askals and Aspins play significant roles in Filipino society, not only as pets but also as symbols of resilience, adaptability, and cultural identity.
Make the switch in the way we refer to our beloved furry friends. Instead of calling them 'Askal', use the term 'Aspins'. Aspins are a unique breed of dogs that are native to the Philippines. By using the term 'Aspins', we hope to promote a more inclusive and positive image for these amazing dogs. So let's all embrace this change and start using 'Aspins' from now on!
