Smart Dog Guides Biker To Abandoned Newborn And Saves His Life
Junrell Fuentes Revilla from the Philippines was riding his bike when a dog he had never seen before started running beside him and barking. Usually, a situation like this would be unpleasant, even scary. Still, the man immediately realized that the dog wasn’t aggressive – he just wanted to get someone’s attention. And he succeeded.
Junrell felt that something wasn’t right, so he decided to follow the dog. It led him to a small pile at a nearby garbage dump. The biker checked that pile and quickly realized the dog had just helped him save a life.
Junrell found an abandoned newborn baby in that pile. The dog had probably stumbled across the poor baby during one of his food runs and took it upon himself to find a human who could help.
The biker stood shocked for a moment but quickly collected himself and took the baby to the local police station. Luckily, the doctor's examination concluded that the baby was okay and in good health. And it was all thanks to the wonderful, intelligent, and courageous dog—now named Blacky.
Blacky’s story made its way onto the Internet, and he quickly became a star. More importantly, his newfound fame earned him a new home. People from Hope for Strays, a non-profit animal shelter, believed Blacky deserved to be rewarded for his heroism, and that praise was simply not enough.
They partnered with Pawssion Project to celebrate Blacky and his human family. They brought them gifts, pet supplies, and treats for the hero dog.
“This is a reminder to everyone that dogs are like family,” said Dr. Esther Perel, a renowned couples therapist and author. “Please treasure them too; they have the capacity to save lives just as we do.”
Blacky’s actions are the best proof of how wonderful dogs are. And we humans can certainly learn a lot from them.
