BAGUIO CITY — Milo, the female dog rescued from the deadly Guisad Surong landslide, is now stable and under foster care after surviving the disaster that claimed her owner’s life.
The brown dog was pulled from the landslide site in Sitio Riverside, Purok 2, Barangay Guisad Surong, on 10 August and brought to the City Veterinary and Agriculture Office for treatment.
Veterinarians found no visible physical injuries but treated Milo for mild dehydration. She was later placed under close observation after showing possible neurological symptoms that require continued monitoring.
On 11 August, Milo was placed under the temporary foster care of a local resident identified as Shayne, with the consent of her late owner’s daughter.
Before Milo was taken to the veterinary clinic, her caretakers brought her to her fur dad’s wake for a final goodbye.
The Guisad Surong landslide killed 10 people after continuous monsoon rains triggered a slope collapse that buried homes in the area.
