Normally, only sportsmen are seen in football games executing tricks with the ball and working as a team to win, but a dog that disrupted a game captured the attention of all spectators.
A stranger stole the show at the Hernando Siles stadium in La Paz, Bolivia, during a soccer game between The Strongest and Nacional de Potos. A homeless dog approached the field of play and caused quite a commotion since he had a sneaker in his jaws that he had stolen from a substitute.
The dog, dubbed “Cachito,” evidently wanted to show the soccer players the sports treasure, but the players tried to keep focused on the game.
However, the dog was soon overlooked since his meander around the field, evading the referees and players, caused the game to be called off. The dog, thrilled with the attention he had gotten, chose to lie down on the pitch and began gnawing on the shoe excitedly.
Game commentators had to mention how adorable the pup was, and he became the game’s star within minutes.
Cachito had certainly had his moments of fame, and he didn’t want to waste them; instead, he wanted to share his happiness with everyone.
When other gamers tried to grab Cachito, the dog twisted around on the ground and received a lot of petting.
Cachito then permitted Ral Castro, a player of the local team, to pick him up and carry him off the field so that the game could resume.
The lovable puppy not only captivated the hearts of football fans, but he also acted as a fortunate charm for the local team. Since The Strongest won the Christmas Eve game 3-1. Cachito and the audience were both happy with the outcome.
No one knew what had happened to the night’s star until a news item about the loving puppy surfaced on social media a few days later. Cachito was discovered in the city center, battered and in terrible health after being hit by a vehicle.
The guy who spotted him posted a need for assistance on Facebook, and they swiftly replied.
Mayra, an animal shelter ” Ni Una Patita Menos ” rescuer, went to the scene and took the puppy to the shelter to be treated.
Mayra stated to El Potosí: “We noticed this person’s message. When we arrived, the youngster who had published informed us that he had seen how he had been ran over and had thrown himself on the ground as a result. He is presently dozing off. We require veterinarian help.”
Fortunately, another player of The Strongest team spotted Cachito’s message on Facebook and decided to share it in order to find him a home.
Ral Castro, the player who had pulled Cachito off the field, found out about the tragic news in this manner. The man didn’t think twice about contacting the shelter and assisting the dog; he also covered all of the vet fees and chose to adopt him.
Cachito not only took a few minutes of fame from a soccer game, but he also stole the heart of his adored rescuer, becoming a champion.
