The first reports said that Proteo had died when a building collapsed while he was trying to save lives. His trainer shared a very emotional video saying goodbye to his dog and Mexicans could not be more upset by the loss.

The dog, which was part of the team that was helping in Turkey, died while carrying out rescue work, according to Sedena, which shared a poster with a photo of Proteo next to a black ribbon. Now the true cause of his death has been revealed.https://mundonow.com/en/lebron-james-biden-trump-meme/

THE HARSH WEATHER WAS TOO MUCH FOR HIM

Carlos Villeda Maquez, Proteo’s trainer, explained that there were other factors in the dog’s death. He was close to 10 years old and it was extremely cold in Turkey.

“The cause of his death was not due to a landslide, the prevailing weather conditions in that country, as well as his age, mattered a lot, and the trip, without a doubt, was quite long for him,” said Villeda Máquez, an active member of the Sedena, in an interview with Multimedios Channel 6.

PROTEO WILL RETURN TO MEXICO

On social media, the Ministry of National Defense announced Proteo’s body will be transported back to Mexico where he will be laid to rest, according to Expansión Política.

“Proteo, we are waiting for you at home, because a soldier, when completing his mission, returns to his home, to our beautiful and beloved Mexico. Your colleagues from the Mexican Army and Mexican Air Force are proud of you, our great hero,” the agency tweeted.
