The dog takes care of the baby

What the dog found wasn't actually a baby dog, but a human baby. The child was abandoned by its mother and probably left to certain death.

But the mother doghad a big heart and her maternal instinct led her to take the baby carefully to her shelter, where her own puppies were already waiting for her.

She added the baby to the group of its new siblings and protected her own puppies and the stranger with her body heat to keep them from freezing.

A happy ending for everyone

The next day, people became aware of the baby's cries and those of the dog-motherand her pack. They discovered the hideout and brought the child immediately to the hospital—thanks to the courageous canine rescuer, the child was totally safe and only had a cold.
