Stray Dog saves the life of an Abandoned Baby

Stray Dog Saves Abandoned Baby's Life

This story is truly heroic. This stray dog, that was abandoned by humans and left to fend for herself, took as her own an innocent human infant. Her efforts saved this child's life.

She did the only thing she could: She dragged the baby from where it had been abandoned 50 meters to the warmth and safety of her nest (or whatever you call the place where a dog gives birth).

She did what came naturally to her. She took this helpless child, and sheltered him.

It warms my heart to have this affirmation of what I have believe all along: That animals have feelings, and they do care about us.

So, when people abandon a dog or cat, or when they starve and torture them for a demented "sport" (dogfighting), I am enraged. After they harm an animal, I think they are no longer human. I think they are demons, evil and twisted.

When we do find one of these demons, and catch him red handed (red with the blood of these innocent dogs), what do we do? We sentence him to 23 months in prison.

No wonder we are having a debate about "extraordinary rendition" and whether or not water boarding is torture. It is the obvious result of a society filled with demented, depraved, selfish demons.

I am not surprised that the height of depravity has been achieved during the "Neocon Revolution". Neocons have taken selfishness to a whole new level, and it just makes me sick.
