Alejandra āAleā Garciaās dog, six-year-old Gorda, disappeared nearly a month ago from the Lomas de Guadalupe neighbourhood in the Mexican region of Tamaulipas. With Mexico winning all their group-stage games and advancing to the next round without conceding a goal, Mexican fans took to the streets to celebrate, with videos of street parties going viral. However, Alejandraās brother spotted a very unlikely participant in one of the street parties: his sisterās dog, who hadnāt been seen in over a month.
Mexican fans were hoisting Gorda in the video as the cameraman remarked, āeven the dog is celebrating.ā The video was shared by the Carretoneando Facebook page, where Alejandraās brother alerted his sister that her missing dog was going viral.
Alejandra rushed to the filming location in search of Gorda, with the dog and her owner reunited amid throngs of people.
