Archie spent years being invisible.
He lived in Los Cabos, Baja California Sur, with a huge tumor on his head. Abandonment, indifference, and no medical care at all. Until Trinidad Arreola saw him, rescued him, and opened the doors of her home to him. His case went viral, and Arturo Islas Allende coordinated his flight to Mexico City, where a 2.4-kilo mass was removed on October 16.
The operation went well. His recovery was progressing well, and Arturo Islas Allende had even decided to adopt him. But early this morning, at 3:30, his little body stopped fighting. According to the farewell message, it wasn’t because of the surgery: years of neglect had damaged his body, and it could no longer produce the red blood cells he needed.
A little dog that no one wanted to see for years ended up being loved by millions. He didn’t leave alone, he didn’t leave abandoned, and above all, he didn’t leave without knowing love.
