NEW PET DOG
One of the highlights of Daniel's visit to the facility was receiving a memorable gift through a puppy that was presented to Daniel as a birthday gift.
His name Sunny Ford is complementary to his other dog, Summer Ford.
During the 2 Good 2 Be True press conference for the grand finale of his and Kathryn Bernardo's show, on October 25, 2022, Daniel referred to Summer as the definition of loyalty.
He said, in a video that has now gone viral: "Alam mo sino pinaka-loyal? Yung aso ko, si Summer.
"Yun yung pinaka-loyal, dun ko makikita yung definition ng loyalty."
Daniel explained, "Na kahit ano man ang pinagdadaanan ko ngayon, kung ano man ang sitwasyon at emosyon ko ngayon, kahit sino ako ngayon, tatanggapin ako ng buong-buo nun.
"Yun ang loyalty, walang judgment."
