Hong Kong’s growing pet community and thriving pet economy are evident in the city’s bustling markets and unique shopping experiences. This weekend, whether you’re looking for pet supplies, home decor, or seasonal discounts, there’s something for everyone. Here are five shopping highlights to add to your weekend plans.
1. Hong Kong Dog Rescue Charity Market
Support a worthy cause while shopping at the Hong Kong Dog Rescue (HKDR) charity market at The One in Tsim Sha Tsui. HKDR has been rescuing and rehoming abandoned dogs for 20 years. On September 28-29, animal lovers can shop for pet goodies from vendors like Momoji Pets, CAD, Zootage, and Petal. All proceeds will benefit the 600 dogs currently in HKDR’s care. Although pets aren’t allowed in the shopping center, owners can participate in fun workshops, such as a pet portrait painting session. It’s a great way to shop and support animal welfare at the same time.
