HERO DOG SAVES ABANDONED
NEWBORN CHILD IN GHANA
http://news.gather.com
- Another hero dog has come to the rescue of a child, but
this story is a little different. After a farm dog in Ghana went
missing, a worried owner put together a search party. Thankfully, the
dog's owner was concerned enough to spend almost an entire night trying
to find the missing pooch. After hours of tracking the animal through
fields and woods, searchers found the dog under a bridge in Winkongo.
They were surprised to see the canine had found a precious package as
well. The dog had wrapped itself around a newborn baby who had been
abandoned. The warmth from the animal undoubtedly helped keep the child
alive.
According to a health official, the
newborn's umbilical cord was not cut properly. This led to an infection,
but the baby is doing just fine now. Authorities believe the child, who
was essentially tossed out to die, was the product of a teen who did
not want or could not care for the baby. Police are still investigating
the incident, and the child is in the custody of the health directorate
until arrangements can be made.
The
District Director of Health, Madam Rosemary Azure, told the Ghana New
Agency (GNA) the abandoned baby was about two weeks old. His umbilical
cord had been raggedly cut and had become infected. According to the GNA
report: She cautioned teenage girls against unprotected sex reasoning
that the baby could have been abandoned by a teenager in view of the
numerous reports of teenage pregnancies in the District. Now the little
one has been given medical treatment and vaccinations and is in care
while police investigate. The dog has gained hero status for looking
after the tiny baby until help could come. No photos or descriptions of
the dog or the baby have been released at this point, but the plucky
canine showed a loving intelligence that is inspiring.
Details
about the child and dog vary from one report to another, but the heart
of the hero dog story is always the same. These stories are amazing and
prove humans are not the only compassionate species on the planet.

A
two-week old baby abandoned under a bridge in Ghana slept safely
through the night, cuddled against the fur of her protector. The rescue
dog belonged to a nearby farm. Somehow the pet found the infant and knew
he should not be left alone. A search party found the dog, curled
around the baby. Scientists say animals have no developed intelligence.
However, animals show affection, attraction, compasion, sympathy -
things which are all the outcome of having a heart, not a brain.
WHAT DO THE VEDIC TEACHINGS TELL US?
The
scientists feel that animals have no real brain, no intelligence. Yet
we see that even without much of a brain, an animal can live, but
without a heart, none can live. As the brain is a representation of a
computer, the animals have no real computer to calculate. Animals may
follow intuitive knowledge, and so they can work unconsciously. And we
can see that intuition can go above brain calculation. So many birds and
beasts can understand that an earthquake is coming, but so far, no
human calculation can understand precisely when an earthquake will
come. There
are many things that our brain cannot feel, cannot catch, whereas even
the animals can get some clue about them beforehand.
And after a long
and deep research, men cannot find what is beyond their reason.
