There are many stories about a dog’s unwavering loyalty to his family. This story is up there with the best of them. It features the feat of a brave dog who is willing to risk his life to save the little girls from his family from a deadly wildcat attack.
It all started when two little girls, Sofie and Yoli, wandered into a nearby forest to pick some figs from a tree. They climbed a tree full of figs, but little did they know, they were not alone in the tree. To their surprise, they saw a Puma also climb the same tree. Without much warning, the deadly wildcat pounced on them.

The girls fall from the tree and start running, but the Puma jumps down and starts chasing them. That’s when Sofie’s dog Morocho saw the danger and charged at the Puma. The Puma weighs 180 lbs and only half the weight of the Morocho at 90 lbs. But that didn’t stop the loyal and brave dog from trying to protect the little girls.
When Sofie’s father Tomas Bracamonte heard the commotion, he ran to the area to see what was going on. There, he found a severely injured Morocho lying on the ground. Then, Tomas saw the body of the Puma a few feet away. The Puma is dead. Morocho put his life on the line but successfully protected his loved ones from certain death.

Tomas carried Morocho back to his farm. There, the entire family diligently cared for Morocho for the next ten days. Morocho fully recovered and became a hero to the community and his family. A dog’s loyalty is one of the greatest things a person can experience in life. Morocho, you are nothing short of a legend!
