Kabang: The Hero Dog Who Saved Lives by Nobody: 10:21am On Jun 07, 2013
Kabang is a shepherd mix Aspin from Zamboanga City, Philippines who became a famous and called a Hero dog when she saved the lives of two child from a fatal motorcycle crash. In the result of the accident, Kabang lost her upper snout. Cousins Dina Bunggal, 11, and Princess Diansing, 3, were walking across Nuñez Extension on Dec. 14 not knowing that a speeding motorcycle was bearing down on them.

At the crucial moment, Kabang, the Bunggal family’s dog, emerged from nowhere and jumped into the motorcycle’s path. The cousins stumbled but were otherwise unharmed. The motorcycle driver, likewise unharmed, took them to hospital for treatment of their bruises.

Eyewitness Jovito Urpiano said Kabang (a Visayan term that means “spotty”) shielded the two girls from certain harm. Urpiano was in an eatery on his no ontime break from driving a tricycle and saw how Kabang stopped the motorcycle from hitting the girls. The dog’s head landed directly on the motorcycle’s front wheel, and as it rolled, her snout got stucked in it.

“I thought somebody threw the dog on the motorcycle, but I could not see anyone who might have done that,” Urpiano told the Inquirer. He said it later came to him that Kabang had intentionally blocked the motorcycle’s path to save the girls. Rudy Bunggal, Dina’s father who works at a nearby vulcanizing shop, also saw how Kabang saved the lives of his daughter and niece. “The bones holding her upper snout were crushed, and we could not do anything to save it.

We just pulled her off the wheel,” Bunggal said. Thus freed, Kabang ran away as fast as she could and went missing for two weeks. When she finally returned to the family home, she looked very different. But her human family could not care less. “It does not matter if she’s ugly now.

What is important to us is she saved our children and we cannot thank her enough for that,” Bunggal said. “Kabang is a hero,” said his wife Christina.

Dude...

You need to chill the f*ck out. This is just a thread.
Okay! So you said 'glory to God', the next person says 'May God bless the dog and its family', how does that really affect my life, your life, the lives of the two girls involved or even the dogs life?

The dog is ugly #Fact!

You all need to get lives away from the Internet. So bloody what does it matter what we say here on Nairaland?

Hypocritical fuckers.

What's the point writing an essay if you have a life.

"What an ugly dog"...(LACK OF EMPATHY)

"Meanwhile, meet my dog that caught my ex babe trying to open my Facebook messages"...(DELUSION OF GRANDEUR)

"His name is bingo bilolo"...(DERANGED)
