Pacman, the dog, dies in freak accident
MANILA, Philippines — Tragedy struck Team Pacquiao last Saturday as Pacman, the 14-year-old Jack Russell terrier of Filipino boxing icon Manny Pacquiao, died after a freak accident in the senator’s mansion in General Santos City.
Pacman, who was a constant companion of the world champion, whether on the road or at home, here and abroad, was accidentally run over by a car in the garage of Pacquiao‘s home.
Pacquiao’s information officer said the accident happened just two days after the senator’s family arrived from Manila after being locked down in their Dasmarinas Village residence since March.
It was Pacquiao’s close friend, David Sisson, who was manning the wheel of the vehicle that ran over Pacman, who became part of Team Pacquiao in 2006.
After the accident, Pacman was taken to a veterinary clinic but could not be saved. Pacman was burried inside the vast property of the boxer.
Pacquiao and members of his family who just arrived from Manila are under self-quarantine in GenSan.
The Pacquiaos were all saddened by the incident but had to accept the fate of their beloved pet.
Pacman, the dog, will forever remain in their hearts.
