Puppies Cuddle Up To Keep Newborn Baby Warm And Alive Before Locals Can Spot Her

One of the parents' responsibilities is to take care of and bring up their child. However, some parents still carelessly terminate a pregnancy or abandon their baby right after birth. This month, locals in the Saristal village of Lori, India broke down to find a few-day-old newborn alone in a puppy nest.

The baby, who has now been named Akanksha, was naked with her umbilical cord when she was discovered. Also, she was surrounded by the puppies. Among the locals was Munnalal Patel, who was heading out to do chores when he heard the baby crying.
"At 11 in the morning, we saw that there is a newborn baby girl who was crying and lying alongside puppies in our village.
"We panicked and informed the health department before the newborn was taken to the hospital for a further checkup," he said.

People wondered how the baby could survive the freezing temperatures of the previous night. It was believed that the puppies snuggled her up and their warmth kept her alive. Also, the locals thought that Akanksha was initially found by a mom dog who later brought her to her puppies.
“It’s possibly the warmth from puppies and their mother itself who had kept this newborn alive. Usually, the temperature dips at night and it’s already December. I must say, it’s her sheer luck," said a local, who wished to remain anonymous.

Stray dogs are believed to be vicious, but it was lucky they did no harm to the baby. Doctors amazingly found that the little one was completely uninjured. She is now taken care of by the Child Line Project. However, police officers are conducting an investigation to search for her parents.

Child abandonment is an illegal and immoral action. As parents, we should take good care of our kids and give them the best things they deserve.
