Authorities in the Cuauhtémoc mayor's office in Mexico City investigated a report of alleged animal mistreatment in the Buenavista neighborhood. Personnel from the general directorates of Development and Welfare, Urban Services, and Citizen Security responded to the location near Fórum Buenavista.

Upon arrival, officials found three mixed-breed dogs, two males and one female, in the company of individuals experiencing vulnerability.
