Dog saves abandoned Baby


A dog has touched the hearts of Argentines by saving the life of an abandoned baby by placing him safely alongside her own new-born puppies. The baby is now fine and being looked after by local authorities. Can you believe this? Read on.

The baby was born prematurely to a 14-year-old girl in a town outside the capital, Buenos Aires. The girl is said to have panicked and abandoned the baby in a field, surrounded by wooden boxes and rubbish. Then La China, the eight-year-old dog, somehow spotted the baby in the rubbish and carried him about 50 meters to place alongside her own puppies.

According to news reports, the dog's owner discovered the baby after hearing the child crying. Interestingly, he found the child covered with a rag and there was no marks of dog bite. The 4kg (8lb 13oz) baby is now being looked after by the authorities.

This incident again proves that animals also have feelings like human beings. What you say? Link
