Last week, we reported that Kabang, the hero dog who saved two girls’ lives, was heading home to the Philippines, after eight months of treatment in San Diego. When she arrived in Manila, she was hailed as a hero, and reporters crowded Kabang and her veterinarian, Dr. Anton Lim.
In her hometown of Zamboanga, a motorcade accompanied Kabang and her owner, Rudy Bunggal, who rode in the back of a pickup truck decorated with balloons, to Municipal Hall. There, Mayor Celso Lobregatgave Kabang the title “Pride of Zamboanga.”
