Manchas is a sociable and beloved pit bull terrier in his neighborhood, but this wasn’t always the case. His previous owners forced him into street fights, neglected his nutrition, and he eventually developed skin cancer.
Here’s a retelling:
This dog had all but lost hope until he managed to break free from the chains that held him captive and found his way to a caring family who would change his life. Overwhelmed, he cried when they gifted him his first bed, realizing his days of freezing nights, scorching heat, and relentless mosquitoes were finally over. With grateful licks, he thanked the angels who had saved him.
The Heartbreaking Story of Mancha
Abigail Castro shared with Bunko the sad journey of a dog named Mancha. One day, he wandered to her home, alone and in terrible shape—his coat matted, body wounded, and spirit broken. Without hesitation, Abigail brought him to the vet, where they found he suffered from skin cancer, malnutrition, and serious infections.
Having no idea who owned him, Abigail took to social media for answers. An anonymous tip revealed that he’d once belonged to a nearby neighbor and had been forced into illegal street fights. “They made him fight other dogs,” the source said. “He was kept only for fighting.”
He tried to contact people, but they didn’t seem interested, so he took responsibility for him and adopted him into his family at that time.
When they give manchas his first bed, he cries.
The nights were long, the days were hot, no one seemed to pay attention to him after sleeping on the floor with a chain embedded in his skin and insects bothering his wounds. His new family not only offered him shelter, they treated him for his skin diseases, gave him food and played with him. What more could he want?
After noticing the spots on the beds of her other dogs, one day his owner collected money; she was obviously curious, but never approached. So, because he is a pitbull terrier dog, she decided to get him the right size for him, so she looked around and found the perfect bed.
Although it was a typical gift for her, he considered it the best gift because when Abigail told him it was a gift for him, he went to bed crying. She had no idea that he was crying, but tears flowed from his eyes.
“He is now very happy ; he started crying the day we bought the bed ; I have a shot of him crying in his bed.”
I told him that he deserved it because, despite his past, he was an exceptional dog, well-behaved and brave. He has erased all negativity and is loved by everyone; he plays with local children, keeps the neighbors company at night, and if an intruder tries to mess with his Mancha family, he will not hesitate to use force.
