A video of GMA artist and Pinoy Big Brother alum Shuvee Etrata allowing her dog to urinate in a condominium parking lot has sparked backlash online, with viewers questioning her judgment after she openly acknowledged the act was against building rules.
The footage, which surfaced in the Reddit community r/ChikaPH, reportedly predates her 2025 appearance on PBB: Celebrity Collab Edition 1. It has since accumulated over 1,300 upvotes, five awards, and more than 400 comments — the bulk of them critical.
In the clip, Etrata can be heard narrating her own awareness of the violation as it happened. “Alam kong mali ‘to eh, pero ginagawa ko pa rin siya. Kasi bawal sa condo ‘to eh, na umihi. Alam ko talagang papagalitan — ang dami niyang ihi, guys. Dapat sa seventh floor ko siya dinala, alam ko kinakausap ko sarili ko ngayon,” she said. She then urged her dog, Yoda, to wrap things up: “Naii-stress ako… tara na, Yoda, baka mahuli pa tayo dito.”
Reddit users were largely unimpressed. “‘I know this is wrong, ugh.’ Where’s that girl’s brain at?” one commenter wrote. Others were more blunt: “Dugyot,” read one reply. Another wrote, “‘I know it’s wrong, but I’m still doing it.’ She’s really something. In a very bad way.” One user pointed to a simple solution: “Diapers are just cheap, babe.” A harsher take read: “She’s weird! She knows she’s gonna get bashed, but she still does it, then apologizes. That’s kinda psycho.”
The clip also spread to Instagram, where at least one user framed the issue in terms of communal living. “Sobrang hate ko ‘yung mga pet owners na kung saan saan pinapa-ihi ang alagang aso. Konsiderasyon naman para sa mga other tenants at condo housekeepers. Ang hirap kaya tanggalin ng amoy niyan,” the user wrote.
The Philippine Animal Welfare Society weighed in without naming Etrata directly, stating that genuine advocacy for animals must go hand in hand with respecting shared spaces. The organization said responsible ownership requires a “shared sense of responsibility in public spaces” and protecting the health of both people and animals. PAWS further noted that caring for animals does not excuse ignoring rules that allow humans and animals to “coexist peacefully and respectfully.”
Pet policies in Philippine condominiums are not uniform — some buildings ban animals outright, while others permit them under conditions that typically include waste management responsibilities assigned to owners.
