00:00Social media users and animal welfare groups lambast Balay Dako, a restaurant in Tagaytay City, for its statement regarding an incident involving a customer with a pet aspen.
00:10Facebook user Lara Antonio claimed the establishment refused to accommodate her aspen named Yoda and provided her with vague details about pet size qualifications.
