Canine foster mum
An abandoned newborn baby was apparently saved by a dog which looked after it with her puppies.
The baby girl was delivered by a 14-year-old girl who then panicked and left her on wasteland in a poor suburb of the Argentine city of La Plata.
The dog, called China, found the baby and guided by her instinct took the girl with her puppies and kept her warm in the Argentine winter, media there said.
The owner of the dog reportedly noticed the baby hours later, when he heard her cry. He called the police, and the child was taken to hospital.
The baby, weighing around 8lbs, was naked and bruised, said doctors.
After the case was made public, the 14-year-old mother arrived at the hospital and admitted to having abandoned the baby.
Isn't that amazing? We hear of so many babies being abused by human beings, and here's an animal acting on instinct to protect a newborn.
I'm sorry for the baby's mum though. She must have given birth all alone and she's just a child herself.

Yeah that is amazing. I hope the girl gets some care not punishment, it must be hard for a child to go through all that alone.
Re: Canine foster mum
I hope both little girls are being looked after What a great dog though. The baby might have died if the dog hadn't found her and kept her warm.
