A family from Esquel, Argentina, has come forward to share their tragic experience during the holiday season fireworks.

Sadly, none of the emergency help-lines responded when the family called for help. The family was devastated as they watched the terrified Magui scream in desolation and beg for solace.
The family’s young son desperately hugged Magui to ease her pain, but the tortured dog slowly passed away in his arms.
Mom Antonella Modasjazh later shared her story on social media through a heartbreaking post saying, “Your fun stunned her, terrified her, generated an inexplicable panic. Your fun killed her.”
Thousands of people have since supported Antonella’s crusade, with many pointing out that people unknowingly kill countless innocent lives during the festive season.
