“Run free #Buboy. Gone too soon. Every animal-loving Filipino mourns today,” the AFK said in its Facebook post.
The group added that the incident mirrors how people neglect the loyal and loving street dogs by exposing them to dangers even when we have the chance to take care of them.
“They deserve better — loving families and secured homes,” the AFK said.
