Big Ben, a Belgian Malinois owned by Mekeni Food Corp. President Pruds Garcia, emerged as the Category 3 champion in the 110th and 111th Philippine Mondioring official trials—a testament to discipline, loyalty, and purpose.

Behind Big Ben’s success is his trainer, Choyskei Aureus, whose patience and dedication helped unlock the dog’s full potential.

Garcia emphasized that their journey highlights the importance of mentorship, trust, and teamwork, not just in training but also in life and business.

“Most importantly, my wonderful dogs—Big Ben, Tito, Ulianna, Erikane (aka Vickt)—teach me that true success isn’t driven by rewards, but by purpose,” Garcia said. “When we focus on our mission and stay true to our values, success becomes more meaningful and fulfilling.”

Garcia added that their story serves as a reminder to lead with heart, commit fully, and strive for excellence in all pursuits—always for God’s glory.
