Way is a stray dog from Buenos Aires, Argentina, who has a heart of gold. The street dog had just given birth to a litter of puppies and was doing everything in his power to take care of them when she came across someone who needed help.

Way always managed to survive on the street, but now she had a lot of other mouths to feed, so she searched the area looking for any food. It was winter in Argentina, so she had to hurry.

Then Way came across a newborn human baby in an alley that the mother had apparently abandoned. Dogs were triggered by maternal instincts, and she knew the baby needed warmth. Way thus ran back to his puppies and carried them one by one to place them around the newborn. Then she wrapped her body around the group as best she could.

The next morning, resident Alejandria Griffin heard the cries of the newborn. And when she went outside to investigate, she was utterly stunned by what she saw. The stray dog adopted the abandoned baby as his own. She immediately called the police for help.

The baby, now called Santino, was rushed to the emergency room. Alejandria told the story of a stray, and doctors truly believe that had it not been for the heroic actions of the dog, the baby would have died. Way is hailed as a hero.

Santino was in surprisingly good shape for what he went through, and most of all it was thanks to the incredible care Way provided.

Police eventually managed to find the baby’s mother, a 33-year-old woman from Buenos Aires who already had eight children. She was arrested and charged with abandoning a newborn baby.

Way has accepted a local shelter where she will take care of her and her babies until they find homes forever.

Way, we are delighted with your actions, Thank you for everything you have done because thanks to you the baby is healthy and happy!
